Straight razor id

[flashover604]

Hello all. I am new to DE shaving and nowhere near ready to try a straight, but I wanted to see if I could get a little info on a straight that belonged to my wife's great grandfather. I have two, but the Jung No. 80 is pretty easy to find info on, but the other looks like an ax compared to it.


Here's a couple shots of it.

Any help would be appreciated.

That's a sweet near wedge.

Two real nice razors. The Jung can take a wicked edge.

Wow, that was quick. I didn't think it would be that old. That's pretty cool. That Jung is pretty neat. It's paper thin for almost a quarter inch. Like I said, the old one looks like a meat cleaver compared to it. The Jung is a hollow ground, is that right?

Yes, the Jung is a very hollow grind.
