    Default Wilkinson Sword 7 Day set

    Just picked this up today. Saw it and couldn't resist, it's beautiful and is complete. All 7 blades, strop, holder, and papers.









    Now... To figure out who I'm going to get to help me hone these blades... Lol

    It can be done...I got mine honed up. I believe it was Geezer described it best...pushing a cracker around on your hone.

    It shipped out to me today, so I should see it on Monday, maybe Saturday if I'm lucky. I'll post up some more detailed pics then, after a little careful polishing lol

    Great score! I love them. I have 2 sets. They originally come in a cloth bag. One of mine is in the bag & has been unused. The other has no bag but has been used but is in excellent condition. Do you mind if I ask what you gave for it?

    That was a hell of a deal! They usually go for $100 on eBay unless you got lucky.

    Sometimes other bidders get caught off guard or are side tracked at the end. You scored well!
