Bought about 20 mins ago. Now comes the wait for them to arrive.

Your razors stopped me in my tracks! Very cool...
I browse the forums on B&B with Google Reader. Usually, I admire the mid-size thumbnails shown by the Google Reader, and then move on to the next article synopsis shown in Reader.
But, not this one. I had to come here to see the full size views, and read the responses.
Thanks!

The maker is Faweyso Razorworks in Solingen. The seller has the original paperwork with the set which is dated January 1924.

Congrats! Those are sharp!
EDIT: And can you believe I did NOT actually intend for a pun there? Well... pun not intended, I suppose. It's Friday and my brain is fried. Time for a beer!

Beautiful. I am in awe. I don't shave with straights, but this is enough to make me start. Do you know what the handles are made of?
