    Default 4/8 ERN 'Liliput'

    Manufactured about 1914. Back of blade straight with round point and no shoulder. Blade measures approximately 2 4/8 x 4/8. On blade very faint “MADE IN, ERN LOGO, GERMANY - HOLLOW GROUND”. On one side of shank “LILIPUT”, on other side “ERN - CROWN & SWORD LOGO - 2375”. Blade cleaned, polished and honed shave ready. Light pitting here and there on blade. Jimp’s bottom of shank. Original celluloid scales with Crown & Sword Logo cleaned and polished

    Light coat of oil for protection on blade. Please look at photos as they are best description.

    Honing: Two layers of electrical tape on spine. Bevel set on 600 grit diamond hone. Then 6000 water stone and finished on 12,000 oil stone, then glass plate. Then stropped on canvas with diamond paste and then leather and disinfected. A $18.00 VALUE FREE

    I personally test shave each razor before final disinfection. Shave ready is different to each person. Factors like light or coarse beard or beard length come into play. I have a heavy beard and test shave every razor on a two day growth. If razor gives a close comfortable shave I call it shave ready. If it does not shave right I re-hone the razor.

    Payment due in three days.


    U.S. SALES ONLY! Free USPS First Class shipping. If you want to buy the razor PM with shipping address, email and phone. I will PM back with PayPal email address. Will ship when payment received. Will email you tracking number, and my phone number.

    Thank you.

    $45.00

    No. Not for a beginner. Blade is only 2 1/4" long by 4/8" high. Most razors are almost 3 inches long by 5/8 inches or more. This is a good razor for tight areas like upper lip. I have others that I will put on in December as we are only allowed to sell 10 a month unless we have vendor status.

    A bit on the small side. You could learn with it but a full size 5/8 would be best. 4/8 is a bit thin too for learning, not that you couldnt learn with it.
    It's just Sharpening, right?
