If I had an extra 100 to blow on shave gear, I would spend it on a Cobra razor, not another 1914, those are everywhere, case or no case

Yikes!!! I wish I had have loaded up on heaps of these things twenty years ago.
Ebay has a particular ability to capture interest when the sellers know how to stage a sexy photo. Look at Cedarfurnitureman, ebay seller. They have great layouts and repeatedly bring in the best prices on the bay. Just as in the early days of safeties - sex sells!!! Also too, it is a lovely kit.
That photo sure does have me wanting one!! I guess if I had a hundred bucks laying around ............ nah.

Rocket makes a good point.
my final thought, its a 14 in a wood box.... not a ZINN in a wooden box... hell its not even an OC damaskeene in a woodbox.

I wouldn't pay $100 for it but if given the choice between that and some of the modern high end stainless steel razors people are spending big dollars on ? Not a doubt in my mind,compared to that $100's a steal Good point.....I can't think of any of the new high dollar razors that I would even remotely rather have...So in that light the 14's worth more than that..... "was that enabling enough??"

Rocket makes a good point. my final thought, its a 14 in a wood box.... not a ZINN in a wooden box... hell its not even an OC damaskeene in a woodbox. This too....any of those would be worth far more to me than the new high dollar models....if there was no other alternative....luckily we don't have to swing that way yet....But in the future? If it came down to it...you can't really put a price on these...they're stand out beauties on soo many different levels... Of course this is my heart speaking....I'm a Jazz musician, so I really don't have the bread to back up these sentiments... ...back when I smoked somedays I'd have to decide between blades or cigs....blades won....I quit smoking...
