    Folks-

    I purchased this razor at shop over the weekend. I was especially fascinated by the daily blades (sadly Thur thru Sat are missing).

    I would appreciate knowing more about this razor. Age, history, value, etc.

    Somebody out there knows about it. I've seen them before on the forum.

    Hopefully, the somebody will show up soon. :)

    Very nice find MaxP. Even though you are missing some days at least it has the strop in there. Very cool.

    That's a Wilkinson Sword 7 day set. The blades are similar to a "wedge" straight blade that you can exchange daily to reduce the need for honing. They were made in the early 20th century, I believe--20's? 30's? Very cool, especially with the strop. This link may help.
