    A really nice combo of heft and sound with this 7/8” 1/2 hollow... and I am a sucker for a cool spine! What a nice way to end the day.

    NOS 7/8 J. Breidohr No 19 Solingen This Razor was made for the South America/Portugal market . All I did was give the razor a 100 Laps on Linen and 100 on Leather .Was just trying to remove 70 years of possible oxidation from the edge . The factory edge from Johann Breidohr Co was fantastic.Had an awesome shave with this beauty.Smooth as a dolphin .
    This razor handle and shaved very similar to my 7/8 Tiger and Dorko .

    Huge fan of this maker and your razor is amazing! :happy088:
    If I'm not mistaken, he also registered the Las Cruces brand (or Los Cruces/Les Croix for different markets). I have a somewhat well worn/loved Las Cruces "14" that I thoroughly enjoy.
    Again, wonderful razor!
