Thanked: 634TOKYO TOWA & CO. LTD. 'Frameback' - shave ready
(7)
Manufactured about 1950. Back of blade straight with square point and no shoulder. Blade measures e 2 6/8 X 11/16. This is a frameback razor made by Tokyo Towa & Co. Ltd.

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

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.
Free USPS First Class shipping to U.S. only. Optional insurance $2.75 extra. If not insured seller is not responsible for damage during shipping.
Outside U.S. I pay first $4.00, buyer pays balance. Optional insurance varies by destination and will be calculated before payment.
Thank you
