I traded for a razor and know next to nothing about these things. After having a local barber hone and strop it I tried shaving with it. I strop with a nice piece of belt leather and have actually gotten a passable shave. Don't think that was too bad for a beginner.
I was wondering if anyone would have any information on the ol girl? It was in a box marked J.A. Henckels but the razor itself has no such markings. The shaft is marked DELITE on one side and the other side marked,
