Thread: date my twins...

how long was the 50 1/2? if my theory is correct it should be about 3/4 of an inch shorter than the 70 1/2.

The model number makes sense too, "Hans! Where's my coffee!"

I do not know how long, but I shaved with that 50 1/2 that used to be mdunn's this morning!

The different models just have different shapes (note the 50 is shoulderless and 70 1/2 is not)- it's not a length thing. There is also a model 415 and it's not a sword.

I have a 70 1/2 with an old yellow box with green lettering, and it's my favorite razor. I think it's pretty old. The ones with the checkerboard on the blade and red boxes are much more recent, and I would guess 70s but don't know.

There's also usually carbon steel (not stainless) equivalent model numbers that have the same shape as their friodur cousin.
