Jazon, Welcome to SRP.
I've found your thread.
You're the owner of the nice blade, that was made by Carl Friedrich Ern company, Solingen-Wald. It's a well-known and authoritative company.
There is a proper WIKI link to the company history in the post above, by niftyshaving.
And a little bit more company history.
"159", as stated above, is the model/catalog number.
"Highest Award", without any details like "Award on the Great Exhibition" or something like this. I think, it's a simple advertising.
It looks like an ERN Damascus
All razors are very similar.
