Thread: Modified Gold Dollar

T/T wire transfer is what I used. Letter of Credit is what the big deals must be done with.

deferred payment letter of credit (L/C) definition

all the talk about the amount of work it takes to get these razors into shape finally got to me. I ordered a 777 from mr.parko just a couple minutes ago. Think I'll give it a go on that one and see how I do before buying the 200.

Damn all you enablers!

Which one is the narrowest . . . some one must know!

All three that I have are 13/16ths wide,I'm guessing their all about that size from spine to edge.

ah well, that's too big for me.

Centaur send me a pm so I can have all the names in the same place

Something that should be apparent from pictures of these razors is that they have a smile. So you will need to break out your rolling X honing strokes. Just to brush up your technique look Rolling X stroke - Straight Razor Place Wiki and http://straightrazorpalace.com/video...eo-series.html

I tested the GD #200 with gun blue and it is stainless steel

Thanks Boris for testing your razor. I wondered if Nancy was translating my question correctly.

With all the talk of honing GD's I want to tell you about new razors. I have just received a NOS Henckles the instructions say you do not have to strop it the first time. Do not believe them. I louped the razor and there is noticeable feather with two small spurs near the heal. In the past I received a NOS Boker with a slight hesitation step in the grind. There was another new razor that I can't remember the exact problem.

So if your $15 dollar Gold Dollar needs honing it is in good company.--Jay

Can you explain this a bit more? How does that show that it is stainless?
