Lather: Mama Bear's Sandalwood Rose soap, GFT Rose cream, glycerin

I must say the Friodur is a work horse. Always delivers. Never a doubt!
I love how the color of the scales play with the color of the blade. That is gold washed or is that mirror finish?

Thank you. No gold wash. Its just catching the color of the scales. Its in between satin and mirror. The spine seems to be shinier than the blade. Awesome blade well worth owning. Never heard a bad thing about them. Originally Posted by metalfab

+100 I have other Bokers in my lineup but the Red Injun 102 out runs them all. In fact, the only RAZOR that can run with it is the Texas Shumate. Then again, I may just have a soft spot for the Red Injun because it was my first str8...NAH...it's actually that good!
The older I get, the better I was
