    Default F. Engel New York

    So, trying to do some digging, not able to find much on this brand. Query: is this the same company as F.W.E.? Here is a pic of the razor:

    Fred W Engles and a great brand of razor. A long term keeper if the scales are not deteriorating. When they go, they can take the blade along with. Keep it in open container/ drawer, not in its box.

    Does bone off-gas? I didn't think it did.

    Bone does not out-gass.
    From the photo, it does not look like bone scales. However when cleaned up and inspected it may be.

    Okay, that's what I thought! They are absolutely bone.
