Which antique razor for you?
If you could have (price no object) one and only one vintage/antique razor to use, which would you choose and why?

Heljestrand. From all my razors that is probably my best shaver. Or then i've just used it more than others so it has become sort of a natural extension to my hands.

I want a vintage Zeepk.

I'd like a minty, without restoration, 6/8 Otto Deutsch "Hans".
The one with the fancy green scales that tend to cell rot. I'll take one without the cell rot please. 
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

An original 8/8 Henckels Friodur, square tip, smooth spine. Not one of the regrinds, as good as they are.

I'm currently fond of Torrey blades... have a pile. Don't have the right *one* yet.... I'm looking though.
I think a 6/8 or 7/8th, 1/4 hollow to near wedge with a barbers notch would do...

I like the older Friodurs but with a round point, like this one:
