    Default Need help with indentifying the razor

    Hello, everybody. My name is Aleksey Shtraus. I live in St. Peterburg, Russia. And I need help with my grandpa's razor.

    I apologize for any errors and sorry if i writing this post in the wrong theme. So it turned because I do not enought practice in English.

    Recently I sorted out the things that remained to me from my grandfather and found many interesting things. But most of all i was interrested an antique razor in a unusual red case with a coat of arms embroidered with gold thread (attaching photos)Name:  ??.jpg

Size:  39.3 KB This seemed interesting to me and I decided to learn more about this razor. Perharps you are wondering how did I get here? Now i will explain.

    For a while, I was trying to find information about this razor on Russian-language sites and forums... Well, I did not find absolutely anything. :( It was very sad, but i did not lose hope and continued searching for any information about it. And after some hours my patience was rewarded: The engraving on the razor from photo that I found: and the engraving on my grandfather's razor are completely identical. The identity of the engravings suggests that both razors were made at about the same time in the same manufactory.

    At the contacts tab of acierfondu.wordpress.com i found a link to this forum. And now I've come here to satisfy my curiosity. Dear people of the straightrazorplace, it would be great if you can answer my questions about razor. Otherwise i don't even know who will help me with my restless curiosity.
    So, here are my questions:
    -At which country is this razor made?
    -When was it made? Late XIX or early XX century
    -Can this razor costs any money? I want to know approximate cost.
    -What do the signs written on the bottom of the case mean? Name:  ??.jpg
