Rare Straight Razor!
I've seen ONE other in circulation years ago. This HEFTY piece of Steel is shy of 8/8 but a hair over 15/16".
Le Meillieur Du Monde", means "Best in the World."
41, "Lion Freres Thielt".
Pros: A huge razor with heavy duty custom made walnut wood scales. Brass pins, Clear impressions, one of a kind and shave ready.
Cons: There is a a small chip on the toe edge. It won't spread and doesn't effect the shave but it is there and worth mentioning.
The scales are tight BUT with some pressure you can push the blade through the scales a bit and it is possible to cut yourself. It's also possible to NOT push the blade forcefully through the scales AND not cut yourself. So determine how smart of a guy you are when weighing this. :) light patina on faces. It could be sanded down but I liked the character/history and the clear lettering. Nothing to be concerned with.
I personally like the thick scales. Razor will sit balanced upright without the risk of toppling over.
An exceptional herirloom piece for an exceptional gentleman for sure.
Shaves flawlessly. Went ahead and buffed it to make it shine a little better than fresh from the factory. Oiled, Sanitized, Boxed, Honed, Stropped.
*Honed on a progression of water-stones: Norton 4/8k followed by Naniwa 12k; finished on a Greek Vermio natural hone.
*Stropped on a progression of fine linen, kangaroo and horse-shell strops.
*Edge is shave-ready, and delivers a keen, precise and smooth shave.
Only ONE available. No I won't hold it and no I won't be getting more.
A razor like this won't come around twice. Great investment.
If you need it rehoned in the future I'll be happy to maintain it at no cost but postage.
