    Default Erusta Boehelersteel 13/16 full hollow. ;-)

    Well I started watching this one last week on Ebay there was one poor photo and pretty ordinary description what you would expect from someone who knows nothing about selling razors lucky for me, so I asked him could he send me a few more photo's with better lighting and more in focus and If I liked what a see I would put in a bid, well I did indeed like what I saw look to me as if the razor had never touch a stone well I set out my bidding early put in a number that I thought would be outbid pretty early so I could see who I'm up against well my number was never even challenged and I won the razor comes with the original box the razors in super condition in fact no hone wear I honed the razor this morning going to give her a shave in the week.

    Then I'm pleased you didn't see it. :-). The only thing I did was unpin the razor clean out the pivot hole remove a little grime replace new internal washers and reassemble.

    Great score and I'm sure you'll love the shave. I have one of those with a round point that is buttery smooth.

    I'm guessing the steel comes from Böhler, the famous firm. STRAZORS.com - all about classic razors - Ia Bohler Stahl, Solingen.

    I wondered about the spelling of Boehler and assume that is the spelling using a "normal" key board with no umlaut over the "o". Maybe a German speaker could clarify that. Sorry to be a bit OT on that very nice blade. It is very good steel.

    In Mac it's quite simple, just option+u for umlauts.
