Thread: HELP!!! Can't find this anywhere!

I think Sharptonn has it! look at stamp placement, and the matching "16" Looks like a good possibility

Yes, that is the one I was thinking of. Knew I'd seen it somewhere before.

Well spotted Tom!

I think Bob has it - another company's name was struck. Could have been a barbershop, a hardware store or a jewellery/watch store like William Bard & Co in Portage, Wisconsin. Gents supply stores often had their name stamped on third party goods.

That razor is a beauty. Hopefully you will find out more information about it. If not, take pleasure in knowing that you have a razor that is probably pretty rare and very, very unique.

More pics please. Anything on the Tail, a small tree perhaps?

Hey, OP....welcome to the forum.

Here's an Antelope that I had at one stage.



Here's the reverse side but I can't make out the name.

As tom said earlier it is an Griffon Antelope Diamond Steel sold under the name bards. Possibly a retailer. Absolutely great razor and currently one of my favorites if not favorite in my current rotation. Nice hard steel that takes a great edge and holds it.

If it is in fact an antelope would it not say antelop instead it says special. All though I do agree it is a griffon. The lettering is an exact match where it says dimond steel.

You have the only one left on the planet. Rejoice!
