    Default Henckels Friodur nr17 Pair

    Received two Firodur's nr17 from Japan last week. Thay arrived with alot of dirt and the scales where aged in color, the scale inlays where green . But After a good clean up with hand sanding on the scales to remove the dark yellow layers thay became like new again. The blades are 7/8+ and have only been factory honed. Here is the result.

    Beautiful. Congratulations. I think the 17 square points are the perfect storm of manufacture. They take one of finest edges that can be achieved.

    I received a new Friodur 72 a couple weeks ago.....also from Japan. I now have three of them and have to say that they are absolutely magnificent razors. They are as good as the Filiarmonicas and DDs that I've owned. In some cases, better. And of all the Henkels I own, I've yet to come across one sour one. Sometimes you come across a razor that doesn't take a great edge, chips, or is ground unevenly. I have yet to encounter this with Henkels and especially the Friodurs. And what a nice duo you just landed!
