What! Nobody likes? I thought it looked cool!
Huh wat?
Maybe...
I do find it funny that I scored the most expensive one out of the five he sold (and the one you didn't link) at more than twice what the cheapest went for.

Finishing off my Henckels 7 day set (missing Mon/Fri). I got a friday Wilkinson Pall Mall a couple months ago, and now a Monday Feinster.

Whoa, why did that go for so much more? I figured Saturday (the one I snagged) would go for the most, because....well Saturday's a great relaxing straight shave kinda day.
If it makes you feel better (although I'm not positive), I bet once these are cleaned and honed, they're each worth more than they went for.

You know what...yours ended last out of the set. I bet all the guys that got sniped on the other ones bid like crazy out of anger on the one you won.
Yeah, my bad luck that the day I needed was listed last.
I kind of suspect Mondays got broke a lot too. No one's awake Monday morning.

I got the sunday. I was planning on trying for another one too, but got sidetrack at work and figured someone here probably would be on it also.
So where are Friday and Tues?
BTW, just noticed Drew, you have the link to Sunday labeled "Thursday". That's the one the seller broke.

Tuesday is mine. I got an e-mail from the seller saying that someone out there sent him an e-mail asking for it to finish off his set, and offering me Wednesday. Is that you looking for Tuesday?

Pardon my ignorance... what is a 7 day razor?
Seven day SET of razors. They come cased and have the named of the day on the spine.
A seven Day razor would be a Gilette Mach 3.

Not Me. Monday was the last day I needed. Tues-thurs and the weekend are all filled in with Henckels.
Mine just came in. It was in nice shape. I probably won't get to shaving with it for a few days (I'm assuming it needs to be touched up). Let me know if any of you are able to test yours out. Curious your thoughts.

Got mine today too! The scales are a bit more purply than I thought they'ed be, but I can't wait to shave with it.
Mine came in today as well, a little pitting near the edge, but fairly shallow, should grind out easy enough.
Nice deep etching on the blade. A few hints of gold remaining.

Re: Purple scales
It's so funny you say that. I was planning on commenting the same, but I figured it might have been just me. I think I'm secure enough to shave with a "purple haze" straight razor.

I haven't got mine yet. It took a couple of days to sort out swapping Tuesday for Wednesday. I asked him to send me pics of it first. I'm glad y'all got yours. Makes me feel good about the trade. Of course, now I wonder how much he made on Tuesday....Goog
Wednesday came in the mail today. Have any of you shaved with the other days yet? Did you need to take them to the hones first. While he doesn't call them "Shave ready" on his listing, he did call them nice shavers and said he had honed them. Mine doesn't pass the arm hair test above the skin, though I can feel a fine edge.

I haven't tried mine yet. I was able to pop arm hair with it, but in my experience, most anything on eBay (even if its said to be shave ready) would benefit from a refresh. I'm planning on doing that at some point this weekend.
Mines at 2-3k at the center of the edge, but the heel and toe are butterknives. I'll need to hone it before shaving, definitely.
