Identify Tech-like knock-off razor.

This is the razor that got me into wet shaving. I bought it at a flea market for $1 last month and I have been shaving with it ever since. The only problem is, I have no idea what brand and model it is.
It looks like a Gillette Tech, but unlike a true Tech it has studs to accommodate the older type old blades. The safety bar is an exact replica of the one found on a ball-end Tech, except for the stud holes, the markings and the fact that the metal that is lighter and has a more matte finish. The handle is identical to the one found on a "Skrep"-razor I read about in another thread, but that could be a coincidence since the design is pretty general. The "Matador De Luxe"-razors have similar handles, except that they have three grooves at the pommel, instead of two.
I bought it in Sweden, so I guess it is of Scandinavian origin. The seller was a woman in her 60s who claimed it had belonged to her father in law. There are no markings anywhere on the razor parts that could help with the identification.

What companies could have made it? In Scandinavia I know about Matador, Swing, Eterna and whoever made the Skrep razor. Are these the only ones that made razors, or did every little workshop try to jump on the razor bandwagon at some point?
