Just wondering if this razors are any good. I check Wiki and looks like there is many of them. I`m only not sure if they are any good? Are they good as DD, TI or Le Grelot? Maybe not even close? I know this question is not objective... so there razors well respected by SRP users?

I have one and it takes a good edge and is very smooth. Sheffield steel can give great smooth shaves when properly sharpened.

Richard is spot on They are wonderful shavers.
A Keen edge indeed

Thank you,
any suggestion in regards finishing stone? I have and use only natural stones no paste or high glass stones. I personally try to create a perfect edge in "old way".
That sounds like a plan to me. Naturals will do a very fine job. I finished mine with welsh slate and it cut like a demon.
Start your laps.

Agreed! Those have a good, modern grind. Any good natural finisher will have them screaming. Great steel!
Thank you!
I don't think you'll get much use out of those, I'll pay shipping and you can dump them on me ok? :)
Well,
in this case I just blow $130 bucks if they are any good:-) If I will find some other 7 days set I will let you know. Last time I missed Eliot Joseph (if I recall correctly) like NOS (yes, like really NOS, only one razor was honed) for low $70. They are gone (I know who bought them:-) but at least I will show you pictures.

I think you got a great set there my friend! Many decades of shaving just from those!
Well,
I have two sons and I hope they will have kids too, maybe sons... yes... many decades.
Hello all good people,
I`m in process of restoration of this set however box is broken and need repair. Blades are in GREAT shape (I could post all 7 close up pictures in case you want) however box is not. Question.... does anyone have or seen how to restore this kind box? I do have many handyman skills but this repair is quite challenging. I would be better of just be switching box... but I will give it try.
Let's see those closeups :)Quote:

Here is few photos of the set. Now time to repair this box. Razor are mostly fine. Only one razor has little rust at the edge of the blade. I`m not quite sure what does #2 on the tang means. Second series? Model?
