Imperial razor 6/8 w/kauri
Did this one for a mate of mine who's leaving Sydney.
Didn't have the heart to go after too much pitting and lose the neat engraving so after some high grit work and a polish I gave it a patina. Seems to suit it. Sorry bout the oil spots on the blade.
Oh yeah, It's a tad shorter now too.
Stamps read Imperial Razor Co New York-Germany Registered 20507 . Never heard of them but good hard steel and shaves well.“The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.”

Thanx Christopher. It actually looked pretty rough before the patina so I'm glad it worked out.
I'll mention your interest to the new owner. Never know your luck.
