Unusual(?) Henckels eBay snag
Picked up my very first Henckels razor off eBay, I'm pretty stoked. I love Henckels knives. At first I thought I overpaid for the condition it was in, but I was very happy with how it cleaned up with a Dremel, downright flashy even. I'm trying to hone it now. It had a fair amount of tarnish and rust and pitting I removed, but appears to have seen little original use in it's day, to me anyway.
It's 6/8ths and is about a half-hollow grind. I love old thick British razors but wanted to try a Henckels, and I jumped on this one because of the pseudo-frameback style with the French point and "humped" tang - kind of a British/German hybrid. I haven't seen a Henckels like it before. The scales are black celluloid, and it's marked on the tang with a model number of 80, which I wasn't able to find in the Henckels catalog in the SRP Library. I'm new, so this style may really be a pretty common Henckels offering.
Anybody know the approximate year of manufacture, or other info? Thanks, here's a pic:
