Looks Japanese, with the sideways number stamp and scales.
Better close up photos of the tang stamps and the blade etch would help.
Nice find, the one you left behind also looks nice.

Beats the heck outta me.
BUT that etching looks similar to TI or a Revisor I have seen, can't find it now, could be a coincidence though. Maybe it is a private labelled blank, google-fu some 1072's on the site?

The etching looks like it says FEOX to me.

You may never find out. Close as I could see is a feon, has the e above the o like that. Japanese razor of high quality. Maybe this was from a smaller Japanese manufacturer trying to cash in on a well known brand.

Not a sure thing, but "For Barber's Use" was a common tang mark of NRK - Nirichi Razor and Knife - ie Tanifuji
My father was an engineer. He used to tell me that sharpening a straight razor is like trying to build a ladder to the moon out of a roll of aluminum foil.

We may never know. But if it is, I would be extremely happy. I like it no matter what, it's very nice. Originally Posted by IndependenceRazor1
