Here's my Gong. 13/16 and just under 3" long. Very easy to handle and a great shaver.

 

[MWS]

Here's my first time posting up any of my razors, and what a good excuse to do so : )
My one and only Ator in blonde scales. Always a decent shave off this ol' girl.

Interesting! That's the same razor I posted photos of above the S 525 "10 Year Guarantee" but in German, I believe. They must have produced versions in different languages for export.

 

[zhaith]

Hi, here's one I have. Is it old? I can't find any info on it.

 

[1Speedster]

Those Padauk scales are sick; love that red!

My 7/8 Crown & Sword I recently restored:

I have this same razor with the original scales (I think) - I'll post picks soon. I want to love it, and I've done just about all I can too love it, I have cleaned it, honed it etc.. But I can't get a good shave with it! ARG. I was actually thinking of asking some one here if they could hone the thing, and see if it gave them a good shave! I am at a loss.

BTW - what # is yours Zephyr?
