I have an opportunity to buy a Nakayama which I have been interested in for a while so I am letting go 3 of my "keeper" razors at what I consider "no brainer" prices. All razors are shave ready.
7/8 Taylor's Eye Witness - Carbon Fiber Scales - SOLD
Here is a 7/8 Taylor's Eye Witness "The 1000" full hollow ground round point razor with custom carbon fiber scales done by Philadelph. This brand made some of the top quality shavers from England and this one shaves with the best of them (search for Taylor's Eye Witness on the forum to see what the experienced members say about these). The razor is fully shave ready and the blade is clean, there are some dark spots and some light pitting/corrosion on the tang and back of the spine (nothing near the edge) as this was my daily razor for a few years; this could be cleaned up by the right person but I consider this a great user condition razor (the blade is oiled in the pictures). I also have over $200 into this razor ($125 for the blade when I purchased the two razors from the same member together, and $75 for the custom scales) but I am going to let this one go for only $89 plus $6 shipping in the US which I think is a killer deal. Pictures below SOLD
11/16 Carl Schlieper - Carbon Fiber Scales
More info regarding this razor from when Philadelph did the custom scale job is in this thread: http://straightrazorplace.com/custom-builts-restorations/25754-c-schlieper-carbon-fiber.html
This is an 11/16 razor with a full hollow grind and round point. Scales are custom carbon fiber done by Philadelph (as shown above). This is one of the absolute top of the line German brands and is somewhat of a "cult razor" among experienced members (you can do a search for the brand but here are some threads that came up in a quick search.

The razor is in very clean cosmetic condition (the mark near the edge in the pictures is leather from a latigo strop) and the razor is fully shave ready. I have over $200 into this razor ($125 for the blade and $75 for the scales) but I am letting it go for only $89 which I think is a steal. Pictures below
13/16 Carl Schlieper
This is a 13/16 razor with a full hollow grind and round point, the scales on this razor are what came stock with the razor (not carbon fiber). Carl Schlieper is one of the absolute top of the line German brands and is somewhat of a "cult razor" among experienced members and looks and shaves similar to a Puma Gold in my experience (you can do a search for the brand but here are some threads that came up in a quick search).

The razor is in clean cosmetic condition (some very light small black spots but no corrosion or pitting) and is fully shave ready; the blade sits tight in the scales and closes straight. I am letting it go for $89 plus $6 shipping. Pictures below
