Zwilling safety razor

Hi, i recently bought a DE razor which turns out to be a zwilling (henckels) my research online has led me to this forum in the hope that someone here can help me date it and perhaps a price estimate too. The razor is only marked with the logo and not the henso name, the handle is silverplated. Any feedback would be appeciated

Hello,

appraisal is not allowed on B&B.

For a manufacturing date, the head is cast, so 50-ies 70-ies, there are no catalogs I know of, except for the 30ies.
But you could ask Henckels, maybe they'll answer.

I think the razor is simply known as a Henckels Henso and is a very mild shaver. I use mine often and do so with a shim. I believe it to be 1940s but am not certain. That is all I know. As said above, appraisals are not permitted.

Yours is earlier, from the 30ies, all brass. The thread starter is a Merkur type zamak head.

Thank you, the level of knowledge on B&B never ceases to amaze me, except mine obviously. One of these days I will correctly identify a razor, but not today.😁
