I was bidding on this for sport, they beat my last bid by a buck. I probably would have paid more if I could have it in my hands first, gave it a good looking over. I'm a bit leary about the bay. The last buy I got was a Red and Black for $20. When I got it the handle wouldn't screw on, the threads were pulled out. I just put a helicoil in in and we're back up and running. Case is a basket... well case. I didn't expect it to be too flash but I didn't expect it to have been rusted through in three places. So... if it gets up above $40... I want to touch it first.
But this looks like a steal.

I suppose someone has found a better deal in a store somewhere but the antique stores around here have single edged razors. Those are just scary to me. I'd rather go at it with a straight. YMMV I'm sure.
