Thread: date my twins...

Could you tell what period this razor is from... I don't need the exact year, give me at least a decade




It says 70 1/2 on the tang...
It's a 5/8 razor.

it's from the decade where everything belongs to me! so hand it over! :-) haha

I can't really help too much sorry but i can say that it is beautiful and i am jealous :-)

I thought you had a coupke of duaghters you wanted to marry off! Cant date that friodor you might want to contact Mark(JMS) he is very good at dating razors. You have a very nice one there.

And it's a great shaver

ive a similar friodur (different blade, same scales) that i think is 70's. So youre is probably similar vintage.

yours says 70 1/2 on the tang, mine says 50 1/2 on the tang - any idea what those numbers are?

Nope... I'm intrested what that means also.
My other friodur, a 4/8, says 89 1/2

No one? What would the numbers mean?

Damn, it's really pretty but not what I was hoping for. I was thinking,"well, if you insist....just don't tell my wife"

Red

IIRC the numbers are simply model number... "Hans... make another thousand 70 1/2 razors" and he knew what size, grind and finish level to make.

and by the way send It to me and I'll store it safely for you.

well judging by that pic the length of the blade is about 2.8 inches. and 70.5 millimeters is 2.775 inches. so you could just have a 5/8 inch by 70 1/2 millimeter blade on you razor. I could be totally off here...
