My Holiday Season RAD
After being completely enamoured by my first vintage le grelot ebay I restored, I have spoiled myself again, this time scoring this brand new 3/4 grind le grelot in 6/8. I will let you guys know how it shaves tomorrow morning.
My quest for the elusive 1/4 hollow grelot continues.
In the mean time, I have two half hollow puma's on the way. To be continued...Wullie likes this.

Is that what it is?? The holidays. I had it bad 'till the prices went through the roof. Nice razor !! I think they come out of the woodwork at Christmas time but I am waiting for the prices to get real again. Good luck in your search though .
Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

Looks like it is a Thiers Issard Le Grelot. Thiers Issard purchase the remaining blanks from Le Grelot.

Yes it is a TI le grelot with stamina scales. Thank you for sharing your post on the history of the manufacturer, a fascinating company.
