Just a tip...don't even worry about a 7 day kit until you have a good amount of time under your belt and have tired quite a few different sizes and grinds of blades. It would be a shame for you to blow a ton of money on a 7-day set of hollow grounds to discover a year later that you really prefer wedges

After taking a brief break from straight razors all together, I came across a beautiful 7 day set that just took me right back into the obsession. On the top of the case it reads, "Lokola Rifle Meeting - 22 Aug 1909 - Match 12 500 yards - Won By - A. C. Pemberton." And the rest can be seen in these pictures, enjoy!

Well it must be comforting to know that your RAD has not compromised your judgement.

Congratulations, a fantastic find.

Welcome to SRP..........Do your homework and you will enjoy the rewards !

Thanks for the advice, I wasn't really considering purchasing a set, at least right now. I was just curious to see what they go for.
