    Default Assistance in identifying this razor.

    As a recent returnee to the art of straight razor shaving I have begun to acquire a small collection of decent razors. The images that follow, are of one such acquisition that I purchased more out of curiosity than anything. I like the old school feel of the bone scales, the razor itself seems decent, but I am interested to see if anyone can assist me with further identifying the razor's origins, manufacturer, etc . Upon purchase I was advised the razor was treated as follows:
    " Shave Ready honed using Norton water stones 1k, 4k, 8k, then Japanese Shoubudani Jnat Followed by Kanayama #3 Cordovan leather strop "

    Can't see all of the stamp. What else is written on it? Anything on the reverse side?

    Being a Solingen razor ground in Germany from Sheffield steel you have the best of both worlds. The razors that I have had and still have in that combination have been fantastic shavers. Get it honed up and enjoy!
