    Default 15/16 GENS 14 razor

    I’m thinning the herd a bit and put this fine blade up for sale.
    A GENS 14 razor with a gold print of a toreador finishing the last strike to the bull.
    A German quality razor from Solingen, about 15/16 at its widest point.
    Slightly bellied hollow and three pins to stabilize the scales.
    Has been a fine razor in my rotation, but I have too many 14’s.
    The razor was finished on my Nakayama karasu hone with two layers of electric tape. Shave ready by my standards. I bought this some years ago from Rez and have taken good care of it. Now it’s ready to move on to a new owner.

    Asking for 180 USD with worldwide shipping included via registered mail.

    Paypal preferred.
    Thank you for watching.

    Nice! Wish I knew more about GENS. I have a fairly NOS 6/8 and am going to keep it always.

    Great deal!

    Print reminds me of certain Filarmonica razors

    Yes, I checked for the prints on the Medallon Taurino series of Filarmonica, but this one is different. Perhaps it was made for the Spanish market. It may have been a series, comparing this one to the one that Mark posted in a different thread here:

    I’m dropping the price to 160 USD.
    Final drop too. This is as low as it will go.
