Is anyone familiar?
I am always poking around in barber supply shops. Today I came across this gem. I immediately noticed the 3 pins. The tang is stamped "Solingen..Made in Germany". I figured for $55 I could not go wrong. It was not "shave ready", but 10 laps on my Norton 8k followed by 25 strops on the black, and 10 strops on linen pasted with .25 micron diamond polish gave me a BBS & very silent shave.
Personally I am quite pleased. Has anyone had experience with this blade?

It looks like a nice razor. When you say "poking around in barber supply shops", do you mean online or in person? Are there more available?

In person! I am always surprised at what I find. I turned down an 6/8 round tip Henkels today for $99.00 still wrapped. I am counting pennies to go back tomorrow before someone gets wise!
