    Default Where to find a 7/8 Henckels Friodur Scalloped Back Square Point

    I have seen some pics of this blade, and I think it is one of the most beautiful pieces of steel I have seen.
    Can anyone tell me where I may buy one?

    They pop up on ebay every once in a while. I think shavingshop has some.

    Dave763,

    I got mine from ShavingShop too.

    Some examples that Mr Crowley has :

    Stain Resistant Razors : Shaving Shop - luxury classic wet shaving products - straight razors

    and for 7/8 in particular:

    Have fun !

    I'm waiting for my TI Eagle to show up. I too fell in love with the spine.

    My absolute favorite razor. I was worried about it being so big but it's very agile too. Beautiful design and great craftmanship.

    I know Jon has some (shavingshop.com) I just rescaled a dozen assorted blades for him. They are nice shavers. I have one of the Spanish point 8/8 and it is one of my top shavers. It can take a bit more work to put an edge on it but once they are right, they are very nice. I also know he has razors that are not listed so if you are looking for something particular you can email him. He may have it but it may not be listed on the web yet.

    So how does it shave?
    I would think the Spanish
    point makes it easier for close
    work.
    I'm so tempted, the largest razor
    I have is a 6/8 with a barbers notch.
