I need advice with a W.R. Kirschbaum double ring

[ozzy_scl]

I spoted this online, and it looks really nice, I have tried to find some info here and on google, but no luck.
I have only found some information on straights and cutlery made by this brand.

Anyway, the guy is asking U$38 plus shipping, although the set looks nice, I don't know if it's worth it or not (then again, considering is a double ring, it may be antique)

I asked him if he would drop the price a bit, considering the bent teeth, but he said that's the final price.

I guess I can always find another base plate with straight teeths.

So what do you guys think about this?

Heck, I'd buy it for the cool case!

I'm a Gillette collector kind of guy, and almost everything else I have I got because it was included with a Gillette I wanted.

Having said that, if I were going to look for other brands - That's a pretty good looking example, and I wouldn't have a problem shelling out that amount of money for it.

Good Luck!

I don't know anything about it, but it looks pretty good to me. And the case looks a bit like a treasure chest. I like it!

I find nothing on this brand razor in either the L-W price guide or the Wates Compendium . . . I suspect you have a pretty rare piece here.

Thanks guys, I'll buy it.
As you have said, it looks really nice, I also noticed the "treasure chest" shape. And afterall is not much money, I'll post mor pictures of her on April, she'll be waiting for me at home hehe.

Seems reasonable to me too, I'd buy it at that price for sure.
