    Default Zenith Marshall Wells "Cactus"

    I acquired this straight razor at a thrift store today. I can't find any history on it. On the blade is engraved "Cactus" and the company imprinted on it is Zenith and Marshal Wells. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    Marshall Wells was a Duluth Minnesota based hardware chain The Davistown Museum . They even had stores in Canada. Zenith was one of their store brand names, I have a Marshall Wells Zenith strop. You might be able to find out who made the razor for them by finding who had the "cactus" trade marked.
