I'm more sorry that I can't provide any document's but I've seen this model about three or four different times, both nos and used and all of them had notches.

Here is a link to one with black scales, a bit blurry but you should be able to make it out if you enlarge the picture.
C.V Heljestrand Exellens 12 mm - Rakknivar & Rakhyvel - Hitta lgsta pris, omdmen och information

I don't need beauty sleep Baxxer - I could sleep for a hundred years and I'd still be plain ugly!

I saw that photo - BUT - it links back to the Gents.com store if you click on the buy-it link.

I find it odd that the razor (the white-scaled one anyway) has only 'Heljestrand' and not the full name on it, despite the alleged age of the blank. I also find it odd that the shadow cast by the blade doesn't show a chip - funny things, shadows...

They are only little, inconsequential niggles, though. The bigger oddity is that the sleeve is for an 'MK' model - someone else's initials (Magnus Kindal), so why would Mr Andersson want a razor with someone else's initials on it? Unless the sleeve did not come with the razor, of course.
