Thread: Think this is a coticule?

I'll have it in few days or and will surely have an opinion once I get it and clean it up etx., but I'm curious what you all think. I bought this with the hopes
it was but just not sure..

Seen the auction, personally dont think that this is a coti...

But lets see when you have it!

Could be. Some people used them with oil. If it is a coticule it is a glued coticule. Alternatively, if not a coticule, it is a synthetic I'd guess.

Looks like a B-Hone to me. The only thing I ever remember seeing stamped on the side of cotis like that is "Made in Belgium".
But, you never know. My fingers are crossed for you!

Something just was telling me it wasnt and part of it was the stamp on the side. If
It said selected or extra fine or something I wouldn't have a doubt.. But with the company name I think not. I just don't know what it could be that looks like that..

Frictionite 00 is my guess.

that would be great. I have always wanted one if those but the $100+ price tag keeps me from buying just to try.

It's a PHIG,,,,,,,

I don't think it's a coticule or a Frictionite. It does appear to be a synthetic but I do not recognize the stamping. The only word I can work out on the lighter side is "ponder" though the "p" is the most questionable. Can anyone else make out any more of the stamping?

Actually, it MAY be one of the re-branded Frictionites. Just as hardware stores sold re-branded straight razors, there were some Frictionites that were stamped with a vendor's name on the side.

Looks more like "WONDER"

What were the Dubl Duck branded Frictionites called?
