German Razor identification

Post by olderdogs1 »

These 7 Razors, 1 for each day of the week, belong to a friend of mine that got them from his brother. The brother brought them home from the service in the 50's according to my friend. Couldn't find any info on them and wondered if anyone here had any history on them. The handles appear to be Cracked Ice.

Thanks,
Tom

Nice 7 day set! I don't know who made them but I think they are a bit earlier than the 1950's. Seven day sets are always collectible. I have a set made by Wade,Wingfield,and Rowbotham with bone scales that have a presentation shield on the hard case dated 1899 but the razors were made long before that.

I don't know anything about them except they sure are nice. And I bet they'd be most excellent shavers.

No info but I love that set! It looks like it was made for the German market as the stamps and the etch are in German. ::drool::
