    oh Yeah!!! and it has a French point too. Very nice looking razor, and the Swedish razors all shave so well, once honed. Pretty hard steel, IMO, and hold an edge. Congratulations and hope it performs as well as it looks.

    I feel so stupid. That's TWO big swedes I've missed now. Third time's a charm?
    Muchas Congracias Clas!

    It arrived today and turned out better than I hoped!
    Seems completely unused, what looked like bakelite scales was in fact flawless ivory! Measures quite exactly 7/8", compare with my other fat Helje...
    Only need some very light autosol-polishing (maas-equivalent) and a very light honing, is close to shave ready from the box!! Yes, it came with the original box, in good shape!!

    Will post better pix in Swedish Steel when she's polished up and ready to shave!!

    It's been a goood day!!!

    Excellent! I thought the first photos looked like ivory. Great score.
