That Heljestrand looks quite wide - is it really only 4/8 (1/2)? Or is the model 9 1/2. How wide is it?
I agree, great looking razor Mikael. :)

That is quite a rescale my friend! Max does do absolutely incredible work. And now after your report on the Worldmaster I think I may have to find myself one! Beautiful razor (I kind wish I had opted for something a bit more creative with my rescale) and great post. Enjoy! :)

Thank you! Itīs a 6/8 and "9 1/2" is the model. I have a no "4" too and thatīs a 5/8. Heljestrands numbering is very confusing and have nothing to do with the width. The M K 31:s are 5/8:s, itīs a fairly common Helje and of course the model number doesnīt give you a clue on how wide it is, lol.

Wow, I got this razor back from Neil (honing) and itīs now a beast both in size and preformance. It was like lawning the moan, the frase "the stubble melted away" also came to mind. WOW! I also head shaved today, with my NEW. Nannys soap is really great, sooo smooth and good to the skin and slick as few.
