    Christy, Tech, two SuperSpeeds (one has no paint on it at all, could use some info on that one it's identical to the black one at the TTO, The Straights are top Robeson Cutlery (looks to have antlers for scales) , Made in Sheffield England (no other marks), the black on is marked Best Silver Steel, Germany The bottom one has no marks. All for $40, it's good day in PA.

    Well she said it was an early birthday present. I probably will try to sell most of them, I'm hanging onto the Robeson though, and Black tip Gillette. If I can sell the rest of them I'm going to give her some of the money, so she can find me more or do what she said and sell what I don't want and get the straight razor I've been trying to convince her I need, a Wacker Chevalier, I doubt it will cover it, but I'll be that much closer...
