I won the bidding on item #180509086963. the set that I really wanted was in England a couple of weeks ago and went for way more than I wanted to spend (read had to spend). I figured I couldn't get hurt too bad unless these are like the Selective I bought back when.
WOW! what a lucky find. congratulations, it is lovely
Yes you did great with that set for that price. They will probably make great shavers. :tu
Nice :) I was watching those as well, just currious as to what sets are doing lately really.
Hard finding dated blades lately...
IMO you got a great deal and they are probably high quality as well as pretty. Unusual scales and very nicely etched blades, in great condition.
WOW what a lucky find! and they're mint too
Not mint. I have spent the last week going from 320 to 2000 wet and dry and re-honing them with a 4/8K norton combo and then on a very hard barbers hone and then to the strop. Unfortunatly I slipped off my rubber mount with Thursday and a big chip came out of the blade. :boohoo:so there went my 7 day set. I'm going to have to keep my eyes out for another set down the road. I oiled up all the blades and stuck it away. :( :(
well, s*** happens. You still did well for a 6-day set. Love the scales, there's so many plain-janes out there.
Sorry about that accident, been there too! Anyway, the old saying goesQuote:
