George Butler Sheffield
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.

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!

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!
