Well, since I just posted it in the shoulderless club as well; here's my new Henckels #59. A zippy little 4/8; no fluff, all business. Honed up nicely, and I've sanded it to 600 grit; Still needs polishing.
*edit* - posted post-1µ polish shot as well. The picture doesn't do it justice; it's much shinier.
Thats a nice #80 there, fatboyslim. My favorite Henckels model; hope to have one myself one day. (let me know if you ever get tired of it ;))
This blade looks popular in this group and the rescales look great. Here is a version rescaled by my son and I in Lace Wood, urathane finish w/ brass pins, brass domed washer, brass daisy and Lace Wood wedge. Pics by JrJoeD, my son. This rescale will also be posted in the Workshop Gallery. Hope you all like the results of this rescale.
This is my first day on the SRP and I've already joined the Pipe club but my first straight was a Henckels #114 that I believe to be NOS. It remains one of my best shavers, they all seem to take an edge easily. That said, I have had some difficulty getting this big #14 to as sharp as I know it can be. Here are a couple of my Twins...

Here is my entry to the club,,,,,I hope it is worthy.7/8 Friodur Spanish point scalloped back mounted it in lacewood with a matching wedge
Since we're on a roll here are two 7/8 Spanish point scalloped diamond back Friodurs.
Cocobolo and Lacewood.
Brass and silver pins.
Mike and Max, Nice work on the scales. They match the blade very nicely! :rock::rock:
Unlike Max, I can NOT take credit for mine. Cannonfodder(Dave) made my up to look as great as they do. BUT THANK YOU FOR THE KIND WORDS.
Pulled this one out of my stash. Going old school with this gorgeous Henckels TwinWorks #50 5/8. Gotta love them. Excellent shavers, one by one!
