Thanked: 0bought 3 more razors from finland today...
tell me your opinions, i payd 25€ from all 3... blade looks to be in good condition in all of those...
this is JERNBCLAGF.T ESKILSTUNA or something like that, so it should be swedish steel
from this i got no info, it just some razor #64?
and this last is fodgers & sons from sheffield (everyone should know that)

Thanked: 9first time I hear Fodgers anyway, the Jernolaget should be a good one, when honed well. If even only it is in good shape I'd call this a good deal.
Cheers

Personally, I like the Fodgers best.
Yes, I think you got a good deal.Til shade is gone, til water is gone, Into the shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath.

I think you did very well. Hone wear doesn't look excessive on any of them, and they don't show much tarnish/pitting/corrosion at all.
The 2nd one (#64) "looks" Swedish based on the tang/monkeytail profile.
I like the smile on the Fodgers/Rodgers - too bad it has a piece of scale broken off, but for what you're into it for so far it's well worth rescaling if it hones up and shaves as well as it should.
