Thanked: 0Clan of the Dancing Twins
Since users are posting to The Boker Brotherhood and The Butcher Shop I thought that I would start The Clan of the Dancing Twins.
Here is a recent find at a local antiques shop. Of course, the razor wasn't in this good of shape. I spent about an hour with MAAS and a rag, as well as, an application of dental floss in those tight places. (Everyone has seen dirty razors, so I won't waste your time with those photos.)
Notice that that it came with the original box, and I can almost make out the original owner's name handwritten on the label on the back.
I am happy with this find.

very nice...
I love my Henckels
The one on the left is an 8/8 high carbon, and is my #1 shaver hands down...
on the right is a 7/8 froidur spanish point in Kudu scales, and is also an excellent shaver.
I'll step out on a limb and say I've yet to find a razor better than a Henckels.

OK, here's two real quick....my 7/8 Friodur I bought from drfred and my rescaled spike. This blade needed scales and I had a Fily with a broken blade....so this became my first rescale project. I call her my Henkelmonica....lol....I'll probably put some customs on her once I get some more made.

This is my 11/16 Friodur not fancy but she sure can cut.... When Solingen blades are done right they really are done right....Smooth, sharp and easy to hone what more can you ask for!!!!!!

Thanked: 0I found the twin to my razor (see first post). It is another number 18. Unfortunately, someone neutered the spike.
