Pretty razor! Course, that is a lot of cash :p
I have one with snakewood scales. It is a very, very close shaver. It gives my LeGrelot 1/4 a run for comfort. Honing was very easy. I understand that these are old razors blanks brought into production. It is definitely a keeper for me.
I have one of these too....the older etching (Fox and Rooster) with snakewood scales...A decent shaver, they are getting pretty proud of them these days it looks like.......
Here's an old photo....

Gentlemen,
Thank you for your thoughts on this razor.
My dear Lynn, especially thank you for your comments. Since you are my shave guru, what you say is The Law.
Now if you will permit me, gentlemen, I shall resume my drooling over this lovely razor.
Regards,
Obie
Here's a pair of bone handled lovelies with one being the silver steel and the Spartacus marked piece the new stuff. Both shave great.
I have the snakewood / eagle edition...I love it...the balance and aesthetics of the razor is wonderful...would save the money and get one...
My dear JimmyHAD,
Those are gorgeous razors. Excellent choice. I have been drooling over them, too.
Regards,
Obie
Thanks Obie, they shave as good as they look. Funny thing is that I got the Spartacus from a UK vendor and it was expensive. A month or so later a forum member put the silver steel copy in the classifieds for half of what I had paid for the Spartacus and it was virtually mint. :y
