    I've gotten a number of large (size of a hardcover book) traveler sets and a few smaller (size of a mass market paperback book) travelers -- but none as cool as this one. The Kabrand is known as a straight razor maker -- but I've had a few DEs from this maker. And now this 2-toned slant adjustable from Kabrand in a custom leather case.

    And as far as I can tell, this set has never been used -- likely from the early 1940s.

    You can see the brand name cut into the case so this must have been a ready made -- as opposed to custom -- case.

    Check out the slant adjustment. Loosen the handle and change the slant angle.

    Looks to be gold and silver plated -- 2-toned.
