    No Problem.I do not like bidding against one of our own.If you do not have a C.V Heljestrand .You can have the MK1 for what I paid.

    This happened with Steve, @Vlasta , and I. He won several Riga Razors including one I had lusted after. When I congratulated him on his recent acquisitions we found out I w was bidding against him for the round tip Riga Razor. Steve did me a big solid and sold it to me. With the package, he included two new to me soaps! What a great bonus.

    He marked the razor 'sharp', he should have said very very sharp. This razor is big, heavy and über sharp. It gave me an epic shave today.

    I received this E. Weck & Co. Sextoblade, U. S. Military straight today. I used these to prep patients when I was in the Army back in the 60s. Picked up some Personna hair cutter blades, too.

    This just came in, today. I bought it, because I liked the engraving on the blade. I've not seen one, and for $10, what the heck, it looked in decent shape.
