Hey gang,
I have decided that stainless razors are not for me, they're too much trouble honing for my personal use. So I decided to put up for trade my what was supposed to be an 8/8 but is more like 15/16 Friodur which I bought NOS a few moons ago. Cracked Ice (faux mother of pearl) scales, "Solingen" inlay, worked back, Spanish point, no chips, no cracks, no stains or any imperfections on the blade. The scales (please do note a few black spots on the inside) close tightly, only minor hone-wear. All in all a very mint razor.
Please do note that it's NOT to be considered shave-ready even though it might very well be that a few laps on the pasted strop are everything you'll need to get it shave-ready. Also note that I honed it with 4 layers of tape to the back to get a blade-angle of 18 degrees which is considered to be the optimal angle for these blades.
As I did make a big mistake some time ago selling my NOS Filarmonica #14 blade which has bugged me ever since.
So I'd very much like to trade this beauty for a Filly #14 in equal condition. Should no one be in the market for that kinda trade I'd also trade for a 7/8 or 8/8 blade with a certain degree of decoration and similar condition as well. The razor you're offering does not have to be shave ready!
Please also note that I'm located in Europe but I'd be happy to ship worldwide.
Please don't offer me money for the razor (at least not right now, I really wanna do a trade), the dollar is too weak that I could sell this razor at a price that suits both sides (unless you're European too... :love029)
thanks very much guys!
Klaus
