What a great combination, a Friodur and a shoulderless blade. That is one nice find Jamie.

Thanks Bob, it's my first stainless steel razor, I'm suitably impressed, the young guy from whom I purchased the razor from told me it was his Grandfathers razor which he had never used, so I just gave the blade a strop and she certainly shave ready with a fine factory edge I must say well done Henckels.

Now that is impressive a factory edge that is truly shave ready. They seem to have lost their way on that issue with modern razors.

That is one sweet find, and shoulderless and stainless, Enjoy!
The box is pretty cool as well is it plastic?

Yes the box is plastic, do you have any idea of the age of the razor, I'm not sure myself at a guess I'm thinking late 70s early 80s? Originally Posted by Martin103

Those are a later production, the box of the older ones was not plastic but the typical card board. Originally Posted by celticcrusader
