I have the chance of buying a never used / perfect conditon razor described above for $150...is this a good price? is it a good razor? the guy swears by it.

That's about what they're going for here, with nice scales.

There's even a 7/8 for $99 with plain black plastic scales on page 4, ideal if you're on a budget or planning to fit custom scales on it later.

i'd say it's worth it seeing how theres been some mint friodurs selling lately for more...remember, some people say the old Friodurs are finished much better than the new friodurs at shavinghshop, and it probably might have some nice original factory scales with is nice to see.

Well, it's a Friodur after all. Has there ever been a bad one?

The blades at the shavingshop are NOS, not like the "New" ones sold at cutleryandmore that are the newly ground / perhaps rebranded fridours.

cutleryandmore and nordstroms no longer list any friodurs. And the only razor listed at the zwilling pour homme website is the wooden-handled shaving set.

So it looks like we're just back to TI and Dovo for volume production. Unless the Boker rumors come true...
