    Default Info Regarding Razor

    I was looking to acquire a second razor and I stumbled upon this one:

    I see it was made in Solingen so I assume it's a good razor. Just wanted to check with the community in case I am missing anything. It's a local seller, do you guys think it would be a good buy?

    Thanks,
    BeardedBigbuoy

    Not allowed to give thoughts on pricing. Against the rules. You can try to find one like it on eBay and compare but I will say she's a beauty. Something I'd be happy to have in my collection. If my wallet said ok. Right now I'm abstaining from all RADs.

    Sounds good, edited that part out as I didn't know about that. Just wanted to check and see if anyone had more info regarding the maker and such. Was looking around online and couldn't find much on it.

    Thanks!

    A good quality razor in good shape. Worthy of purchase consideration.

    It's a beauty and in beautiful condition. A round toe is great way to get started in Straight razor shaving. The gold wash is fragile, keep the blade clean and dry and you'll be fine.

    Well I have to say it looks to be ingreat condition and from a reputable area. As long as you are happy with the price it looks like a winner.

    Hard to go wrong with what appears to be an un-used vintage razor. Will probably need a light re-fresh. I would send it out to one of the honemeisters here.
