The razor is by Rob Giersch, Solingen and appears to say "Real English silversteel".
Is the rest of the inscription in Russian and if so, would anyone here know what it says - and if this is a decent razor?

Thank you so much for that!
I do wonder why there is both German and Russian on the same razor....
I guess that warranty has expired by now ;)
