at last i managed to upload and resize my pics, (thanks to dale top bloke) I got all these last wk for about £21 in total!!! The set with the Thiers issard is unusual (well to me anyway) the box need the fabric replacing I'm hoping to do that next wk, the razor is due to be sent out for honing.. I cant really use the tiny brush as it is loosing hair. The shave travel set is missing the travel razor but is in great condition no dents or marks on any crome! even a vintage shave stick in the tube unused. The last thing is a Darwin minature razor for collection only as it is very minature the case is a bit tatty but razor is very nice.
I got lucky with the TI the only pic listed on the auction was the 1st and 2nd so couldnt see the razor only the spine, and the description only mentioned TI at the end,, I wasn't sure if id get a letter opener or razor, lucky for me it a nice razor no rust minor pitting. Oh £21 for the 2 sets the mini I only uploaded last min as i forgot about it.
That is a really Nice older TI, Looks from the pic to be hollow ground and then ground shoulderless, which is a bit different but TI does what they want and it seems to work for them I can't be sure from the pics but the scales could very well be Bone... Since it seems that you are in Briton I would suggest getting hold of Neil Miller here http://www.strop-shop.co.uk to get it tweaked in and honed up, he can tell if the scales are Bone too... It should be a very smooth edge, if it is anything like any of the older TI's I have had cross my bench... And yes he is very good, and also a friend of mine, so feel free to drop my name
