    Default Solingen or Sheffield???

    Which is better???

    My straight razor is a Sheffield's Geo Wostenholm & Son's "Pipe", vintage but good condition(i think), please see photos, I have a Solingen's "Koken Barber's & Co" too...

    I purchased an apparently very old(or very bad cared) Sheffield's "Joseph Rodgers & Son's" via Ebay, that still didn't arrives, but the edge looks fine in photos and guy's description...

    Please tell me your opinions about these razors I purchased!!!

    Which is better? I would say they would be equal.
    Both are very good.

    I will leave the razors to the more qualified gents
    of the forum.

    Your English seems fine to me. I just assumed that you made
    a typo. I do this all the time.

    Pazuzu, they are both very priced regions of razor and cutlery making. You won't go wrong with either of them...

    Is that a Seiko 5 under the scorpion??

    I couldn't decide between the two so I got both.
    I didn't vote because I can't decide either. Both are so good that it comes down to the manufacturer and the individual razor. There's no reason why both those razors shouldn't be great choices.

    I like Solingen razors a lot, but all my best shavers are Sheffield, although I might have to add a Manchester razor I got in recently.

    That's where you're wrong... This girl from Belo Horizonte that I dated a couple of years back claims that title (rightfuly)
