Thread: Any idea who. Are this razor

I have had this razor for long enough that I have no idea when or where I got it.
I have not seen this mark before. Any ideas?

I have found out who made the razor with the pointing finger. It is a vintage brand called hand razors and they were made in Shanghai China in the 30's. There is not much out there on them. All I can say is it shaves and the grind is nice and even. It only has a handful of shaves on it so I cannot say how long it will hold that edge for.

Curious...........What is that mark on the monkey tail? Can't make it out from the pic.

It just might be of good quality because there was a section of Shanghai at that time called the International Settlement/The Bund where foreigners lived and worked. That included Brits and Germans so it could be that someone set up a razor making business there. You never know.

It is a tough one to take pictures of. It is a hand folded up with the pointer finger extended. It has 104 need the blade and almost on the tail it has a small 20.
