First, let me say I've accumulated too many razors... shock of all shocks :001_rolle

All four razor prices are with first class shipping. Any additional shipping options add actual cost of shipping.

The first is a Friodur 8/8 IIRC and was rescaled by RW. SOLD
Here's the original listing from where I got it.

Friodur Inox (http://badgerandblade.com/vb/showthread.php?t=128996&highlight=williams+friodur)

Asking $185 (I've not shaved with it, but I assume it's shave ready Jsteele might know). I'll rework the honing for an additional $10

Plus, I'll provide 1 free honing to the buyer

Next: Gong Razor... 5/8 with black horn

Not shave ready ($45 - or $ 65 if you want me to hone it for you)

Next: Joseph Elliot 6/8 with black horn SOLD

http://im1.shutterfly.com/media/47a0dd32b3127ccef9cf8d394a8e00000030O01AZMWbZk1aMg e3nw8/cC/f%3D0/ps%3D50/r%3D0/rx%3D720/ry%3D480/

Not shave ready ($65 - $85 if you want me to hone it)

Last: 5/8 W H Morley & Sons Hollow Ground Razor with Barbers Notch (second pic sucks, but shows the lines)

http://im1.shutterfly.com/media/47a0dd32b3127ccef9cfa08b0ab200000030O01AZMWbZk1aMg e3nw8/cC/f%3D0/ps%3D50/r%3D0/rx%3D550/ry%3D400/

http://im1.shutterfly.com/media/47a0dd32b3127ccef9ce0f9c6a2600000030O01AZMWbZk1aMg e3nw8/cC/f%3D0/ps%3D50/r%3D0/rx%3D550/ry%3D400/

not shave ready ($45 or $60 if you want me to hone it)

These razors are priced to move without honing them because I've got too much stuff to do.

I could take more pics if necessary, but I really just want to get rid of these things :lol1:

Gents... the friodur is a beaut of a shaver. When I saw her last she was popping hair of the arm like butter. I suggest a good stropping is all that is needed.

Thank you for chiming in. It popped arm hair for me as well, but I never shaved with it :001_rolle

I also forgot to mention that at $185 this razor is a bargain. And Paul is a pleasure to deal with

I have one in Giraffe bone. That steel takes a superior edge. When I'm after a crazy close shave, that razor and a Palmolive shave stick are a great choice.

The Friodur and Joseph Elliot are both gone. FWIW, the Gong is a well regarded razor, and is made from Solingen steel. The W H Morely & Sons razor was also made in Germany, but doesn't say Solingen on it anywhere.

Surprised the Gong is still there. Very underestimated razor along with EDACO's.

Bump... Gong and Morley are now Honed

Prices for unhoned are no longer valid... unless you want me to pre-dull it before sending them out :tongue_sm

You could just let me practice honing them :001_tongu

Ugh...somebody buy these dagnabbit! That Morley is strongly making me reconsider my desire to buy new and I've already got two of Paul's collection...his razors are top notch! :smile:

FWIW, I test shaved these razors and was very pleased. The Gong is exceptionally smooth. If these don't sell soon, I'll withdraw them because they are good enough shavers to hang on to

Gong is pending... Bump for the Morley & Sons.
