Thread: Didn't purchase, but saw this today...

It was the only straight I saw at any of the antique shops my wife and I visited today.

I have no idea if that price is good or bad, but that looks like a really nice set. It looks like someone put some time into making it.

Did you handle it? I think I would have needed to see that set from every angle

The set was in a locked cabinet, but looked much better in person.
I know better than to handle something I don't have the cash to purchase.

I don't know if the price is reasonable or not, but it was a remarkable set, assuming the story card is true.

That is gorgeous!! The scales are ivory with tortoise spacers, and it looks like Joseph Rodgers. A stunning set, I might very well have dropped 1k on it if I were there and he could go down.

Ivory? That just makes me want it more.

I doubt it's going to sell any time soon. Maybe I can save up for it.

I wonder why his men would have given him a fifty year old razor set?

Awesome to look at btw! Thanks for sharin!

Forget ivory, that's ivory AND tortoise! Those multi-material panel scales are pretty scarce.

Haha. Found it in an online auction from 2007.
Sold for $425 back then.
