Default FS: Red Impl 5/8 Pristine

I bought this on eBay from Altima55. The original ad read:


"This is an absolutely drop dead perfect, no blemishes or defects, looks like it just came out of the factory, except this one doesn't even have any of the usual extremely minor factory blemishs (sic) a razor may sometimes incur. It's positively pristine in every way. Never used and made in Solingen Germany it has a 5/8 mirror finish, spike point blade. It opens and closes snug and smooth on the pivot pin and perfectly centered between the handles. It has the typical Red Imp factory celluloid handles with the 3 pins. It also comes with it's original black hard plastic box that is in new condition except that the label has been torn where the box was opened. This razor comes shave ready."


I have only shaved with this razor twice. I stropped it up and it is shave ready. It is still in great condition and the scales are super tight. It was a nice shave, but I recently bought a larger blade (http://www.straightrazorplace.com/fo...t-chopper.html) and I am selling to make up for it.

She's a beauty. Those 133's are quite stiff for full hollows and handle very nicely.
