LARGE BARBERS STRAIGHT RAZOR GREAVES & SON - eBay (item 140245790915 end time Jul-07-08 19:28:28 PDT)

Be honest, were you watching and what was your max bid? I was in for $115, and with a few hours to go I was actually winning.

I was watching it but didn't bid. Last I saw it was just over $200 with about 15 minutes left. Even at that I wasn't expecting it to go for the price it did. Then again blades that size do seem to be pretty rare especially in the condition that one appears to be in.

Really really nice looking razor! I wish that I could afford that one and am sure that the new owner will be very happy as long as it was not too much of a stretch for his budget.
