Thread: RENZO Reg. 314848 Sheffield Straight, any Infos about the Manufactorer?

Got this nice Renzo in 13/16" today and wonder who made it?
Has anyone Infos about the Razor and its Manufactorer?

Great color transition on those scales. Looks good.

Thank you :-)
Im sure they will be a bit more translucent after i polish them in the gap where the Blade rests normally, only polished the outer sides yet. Shaved with it a few minutes ago and it was really nice, full hollow with a rigid blade, a real Allrounder :-)

After some Search i found out the "The Renzo" TM under UK Regd. No. 314848 was owned and used by Robert Hovenden & Sons Limited in London, a big Wholesaler and reknown Master Barber.
Here i have some Infos about the Company and Mr. Hovenden:

Heres the Hair Clipper named the Renzo that made my find the TM-Holder Hovenden:

And Last but not Least, in an add from 1914, showing the Renzo with possibly Celluloid Scales:

(Dont know about the Copyright so i only post the link, i a mod reads this and it would be OK to
enbedd the Pic, please tell me).

On an Ebay Auction i saw an Hovenden & Sons with Neva (John Clarke & Sons) TM, so i dont think that Hovenden was the Producer of this Razors.
