Wilkinson Sword Co. Wedge Style Safety Razor in Metal Box
Available is a Wilkinson Sword Co. Wedge Style Safety Razor from Wilkinson Sword. The razor set is from the days when disposable blades were still new- thus this set has tiny straight razor blades that need regular upkeep. Included is an unopened Wilkinson blade. Rare find! Everything works and is mechanically sound. These are great shavers and collectables alike. Lightly restored but the blades have not been honed, thus it is not shave ready.
