Wilkinson Sword Light Brigades

[Mark1966]

OK, so who was it -

Look closely people - 55 blades sold for $US210 in four minutes

That is $A275, so $A5 a blade!

I like my vintage blades - but that cannot be good value ...

Maybe the buyer justifies the cost by comparing to carts?
Hmmmmm bean counter says 3 x Wilky Light Brigades or 100 Astra SP for the same $$ or 12 Wilky Light Brigades compared to 100 Wizamet or a beautiful straight razor and a bit of elbow grease for a lifetime of shaves
"probably the finest double edge blade ever made". Are they better than Personna 74?

They are good, yet damn, I'd hesitate when $5 a blade.

I could put together a 7 day set of straight razors for that price. I guess someone either really likes them or they are not the sharpest.

Wow, someone desperately wanted those!
