How far back (in years) do the Vintage slants go?

May 9, 2009 #3 O Oel I have no idea, but Slantfan (a member here) has a Merkur slant razor that is dated to ca. 1925.

May 11, 2009 #6 scottish steve I remember seeing a thread that stated Merkur copyrighted the Slant design in the 1920s. Don't think they go before then. What I would like to know is how Merkur think they can get away with stating the 1904 is in any way based on a double-ring?
