About to buy my first used razor and need some tips
So its a Heljestrand that I found online. From the pics, blade looks in good condition, scales might need replacing which is fine. Here is his description:
A vintage C.V. Heljestrand straight razor, Eskilstuna Sweden. The blade is engraved with "Soderfors Extra Specialstal", there is no model number. The scale has a very small nick , but is in good overall condition. The razor opens and closes easily with pins in place.There is a notch in the blade, which I believe is a barbers notch and it is not a nick. Razor is described as best as I can,as I am not an expert nor a dealer.
C.V. Heljestrand and Eskilstuna is engraved on the lower part of the blade by the scale (still not all familiar with straight razor anatomy haha).
Should I stay away from this one gents? $25.00 or best offer.
