Thread: Manufacturing Period Range Help.

Thanks for your reply, here a closer look. No C. On the one you asked. And i havent found online another ones with these model numbers (105, 300 or 2288)

And how about this weird Rich Abr Herder, solingen model 133. Blade has golden design with R. A. Herder .....ANZA

And the scale has that weird shape that goes inside to other plastic part like a traveller's model?

Typical razors from the 1920 1930 area, the ERN not worth the restauration IMHO

I would agree with this. I wouldn't put too many hours into it. While I like how its turned itself in a natural shorty (maybe had some help with those lines?) and I think it looks cool, that crazy spine wear on it is going to make it a PitA to hone well.

The FRIEDR HERDER ABR SOHN is most likely late 1800's early 1900's & is a good straight razor. The FRIEDR ERN & CO, WEYER SOLINGEN is
1920-present & a good straight razor but if it were C. FRIEDR ERN & CO, it would have been made from 1873-present & also a good one.

About the ERN they mention above, it has a lot of hone wear & was most likely cracked or chipped at the heel which is the reason for the odd shaped blade & really wasn't worth restoring but it's too late unless you could use the scales on another straight razor. Nice work by the way!

This one has seen a lot of use but appears to still be usable & could be honed & be a good shaver. The company was made by Richard Abraham Herder from 1885-present.
