    NOS Towa and NOS Nichiri Riki Shia. Beauties if I may say so myself!

    Very nice Royalcake, I've sold a few Japanese razors and there's a few I've regretted and one of them was a big Towa full hollow 7/8 with a covered tang great shavers, I'm waiting on a NOS Gold Rex full hollow 13/16 to come in I'll put up some pic's when she arrives, that's another I once owned and sold so glad I tracked another down. :-)

    One I have and it's a beautiful razor is a "FON Golden Star". I've seen the "FON" on other razors that seem to be of different brands....but, maybe it's the Brand??? Anyone have any info on what FON means?
