Thanked: 13226Kamisori Unpacking
This one just came to visit
Just too pretty not to share.. I haven't seen this particular Stamp before, anyone have a story ???
Doesn't look like the case has a real relationship..
I don't think the edge has been touched since it left the Maker's Hands

Thanked: 1074I have one very similar, stainless steel, with what appears to be on the box Inoue Tosuke address and number.
PS they can take a ridiculously sharpe edge

Tosuke Razors came in a cardboard box with blue print on them. I used to sell them years ago. However he did make some "specials" aside from his regular run of the mill razors. I've never seen a special "in the flesh". Maybe you have one.
On the other hand that R in the print doesn't look familiar. It might not be a Tosuke maybe the handle only is.

To my eyes, the kanji on the box matches that on the blade so I'd say it's a Tosuke.
He did use gold colored fill on the kanji of some razors also.
Can you see a weld line ? If not it could be one of the solid ones he made from Kikusui steel, a bit like Hitachi White 2.“The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.”

It might not be an "R". Might be kanji that looks like an "R"
edit : Actually on further googling it is 尺 = shaku like the flute Shakuhachi 尺八
Sorry can't make out the 2nd character on the razor.Last edited by onimaru55; 02-26-2022 at 11:57 PM.
