Size:  39.6 KBJust got this Friodur off the bay. Never used.. In original packaging. I see other friodur 70 1/2 but not much info on this model with gold etching on the blade.. Anyway, here goes....I ended up in a bidding frenzy, and paid $150 for it.... About $30 more than I wanted to spend....oh well.. What's $30... Anybody know anything about this razor model w/ gold?

    P.s. The picture with the red background is not my razor, but the only other photo on the net of this style....the rest of the photo s are the razor I bought... Estate sale, never honed, never used, in original packaging. What do you guys think? Second razor today..First one is here...http://straightrazorpalace.com/razor...e-red-imp.html

    I'm only at this straight razor thing a couple of days....I think I better stop buying, before I get in trouble.............Name:  ileti001lr7.jpg

    If you're happy with the price you paid, then it wasn't too much.

    It's a nice looking razor.

    You do realize that we don't allow valuations on SRP, read Eric's post above that is really the only true answer..

    Or you could, accept the Glen answer,, "If you have to ask, you probably should stay away from ebay" see Eric's is nicer

    I didn't only ask for a valuation, and forgive me for not knowing the rules as I'm new..I also asked if anyone knows this razor model? Most of the 70 1/2 friodurs I found are plain..........

    I think the Gold Etch was added to the later years, I know for a fact that these all have a silky smooth edge not just for a SS razor but period...

    Yep. That'd be me...man, I never really did the ebay thing before. I don't think I'll be doing it again.. Those last 10 seconds get expensive....

    Well it's all relative. If you bought an average new henckels today, you wou pay over 200$. You got a mint one for much less.
