    Default 7 New Friodur 72 1/2s

    I believe these are all NOS, with whatever hone the factory put on them.

    72 1/2 Friodurs, not newly made, all 7 are identical to the one that's open and show only a little hangar rash on the spines here and there. I wish they were marked with the day of the week!

    I didn't exactly get them cheap, but I rarely find nice stuff cheap.

    Sorry for the flash picture. The seller was nice enough to dump them in an old sheffield box, which I actually appreciate a lot, because it is clean and tidy, undamaged, doesn't stink, and the closing mechanism on it works perfectly.

    Nice find! I'm a Mastodon with this computer crap but I found that if you Left click on the pointer over the 'Flash Picture' that was posted then you get a nice big view of your razors.

    The 72 1/2 Henckels with that blade wash pattern in decent shape are rarely found cheap. They are a great shave and you have more than a life time of great shaves ahead.

    It's funny with razors like these, when I saw the group, I thought that I'd take a risk and see if I could buy 7 and keep one or 2 and have the rest pay for the lot. Once I get them in hand, I don't want to give any of them up.

    I think I'll tell my wife "well, I think they'll be worth more in a couple of years".

    And in a couple of years, I'll say "I think we should keep them a little longer, I think they'll be worth more in a couple more years"

    Until I get the shakes from old age....
