Up for your consideration is a mint Wilkinson Sticky with case, instructions, the outer cardboard shipper and a sealed 5 pack of blades. This razor shows no outward signs of use, but the "n" is rubbed off the bottom of the knob from case wear and the shipper does have doodles on one side (thanks whomever you are) and aside from a scuff on the case, it too is in amazing condition. The "Sticky" is one of the few safety razors where the doors cover the ends of the blade which is important to some.
This razor was mostly likely NOS when I received it, but my curiosity got the best of me and I did take it for a spin four times, the handle material is strangely sticky when wet and I would rate the shaves on the agressive side of the scale. $325.00, which according to this 2+ year old thread would not be far out of line: http://www.shavemyface.com/forum/viewto ... ght=sticky

Lovely razor in very fine condition. I'm surprised that you rate the shave as "aggressive". I occasionally use my shaver grade sticky with a feather blade and find it to be very mild compared to an Aristocrat.
Aggressive may not be the right term. There does seem to be a bit of a learning curve with this one that say a Krona doesn't have, even though the shaves are similiar. It may be the blade angle or was simply impatience on my part.
Here's a few more shots.
Edit: I'll send this anywhere globally for the price asked.

Hat's off to you! I can rebuild a carburetor in no time, but never had the guts to tackle calipers. Get the bike on the road, priorities you know.
