Lots of really fine razors in this thread
Here is my contribution to this fine club.
It's a J.A Henckels 8/8 Friodur with a Spanish point. Scales done by one the members here.Bjoernar
Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years....

Here are mine. I love stainless blades, but only have these three.
The Dovo is a 41 all stainless & was my first blade. Learned to hone, shave & strop with this. Can't remember the last time it had an outing, but still can't part with it.
The Friodur is a 7/8. It's wearing the first scales I ever made. Ebony with domed washers.
Finally, the Robert Williams. Tortoiseshell celluloid & 8/8 S30V steel.Substance likes this.

I anticipate lots of Friodurs, but here is a unique 1 of 250 Henckels 250th anniversary Friodur recently purchased from Telly. I just picked it up today so this is Telly's photo.

Hi there. I was wondering if you would share your impressions of this razor. It looks amazing, and I've been eyeing some Friodurs myself.

it is no beauty, and hard to tell if it is any good, but I thought I would take a chance on this EBay friodur at about $30.00. Hopefully it will hone up well and become a great shaver:-)

Did you say INDESTRUCTIBLE? "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

My guess would be that it would take a lot, far more than carbon steel, to get a stainless steel blade to that condition. Sure doable although I have not seen one that bad personally. I'd be interested to see how that blade cleaned up in the end. Originally Posted by Magpie
