To each his own, but ....
To each his own, but this 7/8ths DORKO is the most beautiful razor I've ever seen!

Yeah, that sure is one handsome razor, David! The blade must have been made in Germany (Solingen), and shipped to France for Dorko to assemble. Notice how on a German blade are words which appear to be French! Am I mistaken in assuming the "Qualite Coiffeurs" means "Quality Hairstyles?" I looked up coiffeur in the dictionary and it said a "coiffeur" is a men's hairstylist (read: barber). I know that there are hair-shaping blades that look very much like straight-razors. Could this be one?

David,
There is some interesting monolog in first person going on on the user manual behind the razor

I don't speak French, but my read was "Barber's Quality" --- not unlike the old roll engravings. "For Barbers Use"

Here's a Dorko I found on ebay:

Obviously a razor for hair-shaping
