Vintage Razor of Japanese Barber KAMISORI剃刀 KATANA刀 y945 | eBay

Hi, according to the seller’s description this is a マルタ. The reading is Maruta. The logo is the circle、 as for marusan in Iwasaki's kamisori. Basically Maru、丸 means circle. Inside the circle there should be a タ or a 田 or any other kanji whose reading is TA. Sometimes Japanese use graphic solutions to write marks, like marusan or hoshitennin. Hoshi, meaning star, sometimes is replaced by a star
The kanji after Tamahagane means
many things but in this case should be simply "made" or "forged". I have seen this kanji on may razors.

Thank you very very much Arsenico!!!
Hope that the Razor will shave good, never heard the TM before, even do i know if it is a TM or the Makers Name.

Thank you Arsenico. You are very helpful.
