Just bought this FWE President on a hunch....
Anyone know anything about them? I am familiar with the Special, but not with this particular model.
Here is a pic from shaveready.net (where I ordered it from).
Thanks in advance,
Ted

It's not in here http://straightrazorpalace.com/razor...ng-engels.html but, you may wake up some of the Engle guys if you post it in there. Something about subscribing brings them out of the wood work :<0)

I have been looking for one of those for a while. If you care to part with it, PM me.
The Leader was the top tier razor above the special, and the President was supposedly the top of the Engels line. That seems to be an older model, Some of the newer ones had celluloid that broke down so corrosively it even destroyed stainless. Inspect it closely to be sure this one has not been "restored" If it has, take care in storing it next to more rustable shavers.
It should shave about on par with a HencklesLast edited by Magpie; 05-12-2015 at 04:10 AM.
