    Default Nifty (literally) razor

    Good evening from Texas! Long time lurker, first time poster. I wanted to share a razor I picked up today with the hopes someone here could offer a bit of information.

    Let's have a look...

    I've been searching online, but with absolutely no success. Perhaps someone here might know a bit about this razor or perhaps it will remain a mystery! Either way, I thought it might be fun to share.

    Have a great week everyone!

    I should probably point out that the smaller text reads, "made especially for union b.s. wash. d.c." while the other side has "Germany" and, of course, "Nifty" along with the...

    HEADSLAP!

    That's the J.A. Henckels logo!

    It's quite interesting how we sometimes dismiss details until we write them down. Oy! I'm off to do more searching then!

    I was about to post, that's a Henckels logo on it. Glad you noticed it first.

    I find it particularly nifty that the germans used such irregularly used american slang. Must be a nifty history with that one.
