J.A. HENCKELS SOLINGEN ZWILLINGSWERK
Special Note -
This Zwillingswerk Friodur is a beauty.  The blade is immaculate with its factory grind pattern strong and consistent.  The bevel is narrow, even, and factory fresh.  The scales are in mint condition.  The enameled design is crisp and unfaded.  The blade is tight in its scales and opens and closes without any problem.  There are no signs of hone wear on the spine.  Tested only for quality purposes, this 72 Friodur gave me an excellent shave.*
Extremely
rare in this near mint condition, this particular 72 would make a wonderful addition for any enthusiast's collection or add it to your personal rotation.
Auction is for the razor, razor box, sleeve, and paper instructions from Henckels as shown.
Please keep in mind that this razor is a discontinued vintage item that has been stored for several decades; accordingly, please make allowances for any cosmetic points that I may have missed in the written description above.  The accompanying pictures are of the actual item up for auction and may better represent the razor than the above description, please refer to all of them and judge the condition for your self.  If you have any doubts about this item, please ask me about it before the auction ends, or refrain from bidding.
*Although sharpened from the factory, because it has been in storage for several decades, it may be necessary to have this Friodur lightly refreshed before use.
