Thread: Help me choose a razor for $275

Congrats! You will have to post a picture when you get it.

I ordered exactly the same razor because I really love my Le Grelot and I like the idea of a slightly shorter blade.

I know you already ordered one, but had to offer my two cents as well...

I just ordered one of these from Martin and can't wait until it arrives...

6/8 Festonné Decorated Back

A very beautiful 6/8 razor with a decorated back and an inverted square point. The lower shank has a thumb rest. Very fine hollow ground (1/1), mirror polish and our exclusive etching "Fox and Rooster" and marvelous snakewood scales (Amourette).
This razors comes shave ready in a genuine leather pouch in a Thiers Issard carton.
The ideal gift for lovers and collectors of historical razors and for strong beards. (Light beards can be shaven with it too!)

Yes this is the same one I mentioned though with a fox and rooster instead of the le canadian gold wash. Kinfecenter also has it only there's has red Stamina wood scales (not nearly as nice though if I bought one I would probably get it rescaled so I might go with thiers{pardon the pun}). Please let us know how it shaves as that is the deciding factor. But, as far as looks I'm sold besides customs I dont think I've seen a better looking blade out there!
