Is this a Dorko
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!Last edited by Scareface; 03-13-2015 at 09:25 PM.

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.

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.

If that's the one for sale on ebay France, it's not a Dorko.
