Yes you are quite right, my apologies 2010johnjef. I recently acquired a Swedish frameback from a member here, it is my favourite razor (of the 3 I own).
I misunderstood, I thought that you had been offered both the razors, and wanted to know which one to get with a view to on-selling.

Oh shoot just checked and you are correct sir lol

If you don't already have one, I suggest you get an illuminated jewelers loupe. Use it to look at the blade. Old razors like the ones you're checking out may look good but often have very nasty edges. They require a fair amount of work to get shave ready. The loupe is cheap too, $6 at best.
