    The razor measures just under a full 8/8
    The steel is clean and shiny throughout, it has NOT been restored the very faint Soligen Etch is still on the blade
    Very very faint hone wear
    Scales are in near perfect shape

    Razor will be freshly honed and stropped to a True Shave Ready condition for the new owner if you so desire
