My, that's quite a Henckels sashimi. What's it measure, and what are the scales made of?

Actually, Chris, the knot measures 37.5mm!!! :D
I'll never stray far from Mystic Water as I still find it to be the best soap when considering the many attributes I look for in a soap. Nonetheless, I do appreciate other great soaps. Besides, a friend from the UK sent me a tub of the P&B Albion. :)

Mike, the blade is an 8/8 and the scales are aluminum.
The seller told me he thought it may have been the 150th anniversary razor.
It does have some etching of the dancing twins on the blade, but it's very faint.
Possibly there could have been gold wash there. I'll never know.
I contacted Henckels to see if they have any reference in their old stuff to an anniversary razor.
They couldn't find it, but did send me a nice pdf file of the 1937 catalog, which was cool.
It's a fine blade. Like any 14 in my opinion.
:)
Cheers,
Herman
Thank you.
It is an awesome looking blade, and as all Henckels are known for their shaves "IMPECCABLE."!!

The Silverloaf is an amazing razor!!! A very smooth shave and extremely well balanced creation. This was one of my best shaves in a long time.
I really enjoy the feel of the razor in hand and on my face. I would suggest getting any of his razors, whether it's a big Choppa or a standard sized blade. You won't be disappointed
