Thread: Can someone ID this razor for me.

I just cant seem to find any info on this maker, from Germany. It belonged to my great grandfather and he traveled to America by ship back in the late 1800s . It has a maker mark that reads S.H&H Germany. Other than the Extra Hollow Ground on the blade that is the extent of markings. He brought this with him on his journey. Any help would be appreciated.

I saw this on eBay the last few days. Did it not sell?

Yes actually it did sell. I was just curious about it because Ive been looking for information on it and have never found the maker anyplace.

I even contacted a man that owns a restoration shop and he looked in all of his books and could not find that maker.

It is a cool looking razor. Wish my Grandpa had passed one down to me that looked like that.

It is a silver maker H Huntley and Son. HH&S in an oval

Another possibility:
