Frankly if I had the choice I'd go Henckels, that is personal choice due to how the steel feels on the cheek.

@ OP hone it up and shave with it, they are fantastic blades.
The 72 and 1/2 is not a friodur model as i recall my good sir

The blade is top knotch carbon steel that rusts and pits as any oter.
I would not have traded a friodur in that sape and condition for any blade. Those are sweet.
I traded the nib 72 and 1/2 for a ti carbonsong because i had more then one henckels and no ti. On the oter hand te guy i traded with had no henckels) so it was swort of a trade up for both of us...eatch got what we wanted regardless of blade rep and price.

That's kinda how things were)
Cheers.
