Hello, Need some help, i have seen a straight razor that i am thinking of buying(Dorko) the scales have Dorko written on it but not on the tang as on other Dorko straights (i could be wrong), instead it has Solingen on 1 side with 3 crowns on the other side of the tang, i don't know what to make of it, is it a Dorko or not, i am looking to buy a Dorko straight, will be grateful for any help.
Thank You

All of them I've seen have Dorko on the tang!
That is too suspicious for me to buy!
I am sure that will take a edge but I am also pretty sure it's not a dorko.
Here is a post by Neil Miller, someone that knows his razors and manufacturers.
He says three large crowns in a row without another markings are made by Three Crowns in England.
Maybe???
From what I find three crowns was made by Overhoffe & CIE. Do not think it is Dorko.
Dorko has a different logo. It's definitely not a Dorko.
Have a look on that thread on german forum:
Rasiermesser Solingen - NassRasur.com-Forum
You'll have to translate though. According to them razor was made by Gebruder Korte.

Maciek.
If that's the one for sale on ebay France, it's not a Dorko.
Thank you to all, i'm sorry to reply late, been extremely busy, so it is not a dorko, i also emailed the seller for confirmation but no reply back, i am not surprised, many thanks for all your help.
Most likely this.Quote:

I'm saying no. The blade is to short for the scales.
