SO. I have read all about how some do and some dont like Stainless Steel, I have heard OK and nothing really bad about Henckels. I am getting a larger razor I guess you can say heading in to butcher? territory? but because I am bidding on a 6/8 also. I figure the other women have generally posted about leaning toward larger razors and I am getting the other one for my boyfriend and since we just starting were gonna try a few anyway. Its now going toward 70 dollars. I really feel like I am drowing iono if I should chase it or not? I really dont want to go after something that is not worth it. The seller was also recomended to me. Oh and if your the one out bidding me then, well you really want it that bad? Ill lay off.
This is a J. A. Henckels, Friodur Inox, stainless steel straight razor that was made in Solingen, Germany.
This stainless steel blade is frozen tempered by a deep freezing process. This deep freezing process is called
cryogenic hardening, at temperatures approximately 80 degrees below zero, and the outcome of this method
of tempering assures a blade with an extra sharp and longer lasting cutting edge than plain carbon steel blades.
It is said that deep frozen razors shave gentler, smoother, cleaner and glide as smooth as velvet over the skin.
Frozen tempered razors only have to be honed once or twice a year. They also are much easier to take care of
since they have great rust resistance compared to plain carbon steel blades. They are considered the best quality
blades available.
