I got this the other week. Lucky me, it was a cheap buy it now off the bay.

Nice score I'm on the hunt for a W&B but most are ridiculously priced.

Waterville razor, in business from 1843 to 1913. Love the structural art and style of the steel.

Friodur 72-V, my second Friodur straight razor, the first one being 472. It is like new, complete with case and instructions. Not bad for 55 euro from a really great guy who settled for a Feather DX as his favorite razor.

Very nice 72v at a fantastic price. I love my Friodur razors.

Thanks Alex! The scales were black/brown in the pictures so I was pleasantly surprised with this one.

Beautiful Golden Kikuboshi and a great shaver. I have to be careful looking at Japanese blades as I usually get the urge to start looking for another one. Congratulations.

I think I have the same razor, but not with those knock-out gorgeous scales. Mine is a near wedge with a symmetrical grind and is a lovely shaver. Very nice find.

Thanks you! The eiko is as you described. Near wedge and symmetrical. Took it to the hones earlier and I can tell we are going to be good friends. Lol
