    It's a 4/8ths Karl Tornblom, Eskilstuna, Sweden, in practically mint condition. Something about it screamed, "gotta have it!" It feels like a toy in my hand! But I bet she shaves like a dream.

    Congratulations, they are some of the best shavers. I like the shoulder-less grinds, thanks for sharing. Be advised 4/8ths can be tricky to hone. They are more difficult to keep flat.

    Eskilituna? I thought that was in Sweden?!

    Just the same, they make a great blade. Congrats!

    Hey I have one of those!!

    Great razor. If it's anything like mine, it'll take a VERY keen edge. She's excitable!

    Oh great! You picked it up! I looked at that a few times, very nice razor, was tempted a few times, you're right, it is a gorgeous blade. Congratulations!
