A new Lady for my stable

**CarrieM** · 08-25-2009, 01:34 AM

Just picked this up from another lady here on the forum who doesn't care for the larger blades. This one is almost too pretty to shave with. She's a 7/8 so it will be interesting to try her out.

That's a beaut! Is this a newer blade or an older blade? Maybe better stated, from what time period did the blade spring? I just don't remember seeing color on a blade like that before, but then I haven't seen that many, comparitively speaking.

I think its probably a relatively newer blade, 1950-60's maybe. Not sure what years Edflstahl was in business.

*edit*
Hmm Just realized, Edflstahl means stainless steel, Not sure who the manufacturer is. Will try to figure it out once she get's here.

She is a beaute Carrie! I have a solingen too, not as pretty though. lol Mine is a Snake Razor, with a pic of a snake in strike pose on the scales, hehehehe

It's not uncommon to see decoration on the blade itself. Some Ducks are gold-washed but I haven't seen one like that before. Please tell us how she drives, you are one lucky lady.

I plan on using this one shortly after I get her. So I well you all know how she does, I normally don't use one this large so it will be interesting the first time through I am sue. I am glad it's a round point LOL

I've seen a few Friodur 70 1/2's with blue and red enamel decoration on the blade. I thin there was a blue pattern and the twins were in red or something.

that is a really great razor. would not mind having that in my collection as i have never seen one with that design. well worth hanging on too. of course if you ever wanted to part with it, i might force myself into accepting the thought of buying it

...hope it works great for you
