I wonder if this is a totally custom razor or if the manufacturer simply neglected to include the maker's mark. No telltale markings of any kind, except for the work on the head. A very hefty solid handle with this long tooth open comb design. Unlikely from the US, possibly German, likely from the 1930s because of the open comb design. The leather traveling case is like glove leather, smooth, supple, looks like new. That makes me think it would be from the early 1950s. All I know is that it is a very attractive razor and I wanted to share it with connoisseurs of razors and other finely made tools.
Anyone who has an idea of where this was made, when, and by whom -- post your ideas here.
Fits perfectly in this handy leather case.
I suppose the design might have been hammered into the head, one piece at a time.
A beautiful razor that I'll use tomorrow & post my experiences and thoughts about. But it sure looks like a one-of-a-kind custom job, and I'm happy to have it for now.
