SOLD: Vintage Wilkinson 'Light Brigade' DE Razor Blades - Reduced Again

[churchilllafemme]

A few more of the vintage Wilkinson 'Light Brigade' blades for sale. Extremely rare and difficult to find, they are thought by many to be the very finest blades ever produced. For many men they will last 20+ shaves without dulling, and they will provide extraordinarily smooth shaves in both vintage and modern razors. They have not been available retail for many years. I am selling 40 of them in lots of 10 blades in the original dispensers. Two of the display cards have had the top half torn off. Prices include PayPal fees and CONUS shipping.

All of these have sold. But I am offering another 40 at the same prices. See post below.
Prices reduced!

Great blades John, at least 20 shaves without pulling. I only wish that the offer of the 9 x 12 print of the Battle of Waterloo print was still valid. I imagine that those went years ago! If only Wilkinson had been in business at the time of the Battle of Hastings history might be very different.

Yes, they're my favorite, and I managed to collect quite a few. But health issues mean that I only have 8-10 more years of wet shaving, so I need to decrease my stock somewhat.

I think accounts suggest that the Normans probably had better quality swords overall than the English at Hastings. I guess if King Harold's primary forces had used Wilkinson swords instead of their Danish battle axes, things might have gone differently. But it seems that it was tactics rather than weaponry that determined the outcome.

A sad message embedded there - sorry to read this. I hate that our members are going through anything.I think I bought a few LB's from you a year or so ago - they are nice blades, no doubt. Wish I was in a position to buy more.

As they say, it is what it is. In many ways, despite some challenges, I have been extremely fortunate in my life, including my rediscovery of traditional wet shaving. The years I have remaining to me, regardless of exactly how they unfold, no doubt will have many moments of peace and joy.
