    From left to right:
    Mystery razor sold off as tamahagane ( could be, but it is very hard to see)
    Another I don´t know the name of
    Tosuke
    Iwasaki 2-chou gake (Wrapped in some waxed cord I bought)
    Iwasaki same as above.
    Iwasaki 3-chou gake.

Size:  25.4 KBHi everyone.
    Recently I purchased an interesting old kamisori.
    I've translated from Japanese as " tamahagane Iwasake"
    It is similar to recent ones but have no "maru" brand on it.
    Please look at the pictures(before restoration) maybe someone can add some more information on it.
    Is it a real Iwasaki or just the namesake?
