Perfect, Jim.
Thank you sir!Nice
You are getting deep into this now Jim. Beautiful!
I honed several razors for a member in Bulgaria and one was a NOS Japanese Triumph. I gave it a touch up on a jnat and did a test shave. Excellent! Can’t imagine what it would have been like with a pastes balsa progression.
Friodur 72-V. Looks like NOS. Seems to me it has never been used. Took a chance and it payed off.
Take that @Chan Eil Whiskers gobblin' up all the Herders.
Hahahaha. Cheers!

It never ceases to amaze me how there are so many truly NOS razors out there. Where have they been all this time?Friodur 72-V. Looks like NOS. Seems to me it has never been used. Took a chance and it payed off.View attachment 993852

Wow love it makes a change seeing someone else getting beautiful scores and not just Jim
Beautiful razor Sir!!!
On its way from Scandinavia is this magnificent 6/8 Boker Celebrated with Wenge scales. The Schorkopf point surely adds a touch of ‘elan to this fine bit of work. I most probably will get a second razor like this to pass on to some fortunate soul..
Nice, I’ve always wanted one of these, but they all have had too much wear.... very nice score!

Yes sir, most have uneven wear and probably because of the grind being a wedge.
It's definitely NOS and a great razor. I've got the very same razor but labelled 11-VFriodur 72-V. Looks like NOS. Seems to me it has never been used. Took a chance and it payed off.View attachment 993852

Okidoki,
I don't buy many razors these days, but sometimes I stumble across one or two razors that would fill a hole in my measly collection. So today I got three razors delivered:

- First out is a NOS Heljestrand M.K. No.10 6/8. It's got a nearly microscopic chip in the edge that'll go away with a minimum effort.
- Then there's a NOS Gong (ERN) 2633 18mm that looks like it just came out of the factory.
- The third is a NOS late version E.A. Berg. 17mm (it was sold as 18mm!) that has laser etching on the tang. The tang also has some very light pitting that could easily be polished away, but that might remove the laser etching. I haven't decided what to do yet. It also has a very small "dent" on the heel. Still the razor is unused and in first class condition.

I saw Maggard had 3 of these and I almost pulled the trigger. Seeing it in your pictures does it way better justice. I think I will definitely be grabbing one when they are bac in stock. If they would have used your photos instead of stock photos I would have purchased one already. Cheers!
