Thanked: 0Antique French Razor - Identification & History
Hello! I am new to the site, but was hoping I could find some insight here
I was recently given this old straight razor by my grandmother. I don't know much about its history.
I have sound some similar styles to this on Google, but not this specific model.
The one side is stamped '42 Severin Paris' which I can gather is perhaps a model number and place of manufacture.
The other side is worn down, but the 'SRD France' is clearly stamped, overtop an arrow.
The text atop this logo is too worn down, but it seems to begin with either a 5 or capital S.
I think it might be "SR Droescher", as I have found some old cutlery (chef's knives) accompanied by the same exact logo.
Am I barking up the right tree here?
Any insight or knowledge would be appreciated. I'll include photos of the razor and the logo I found on the knife online. The other stuff it came with was from around WW1, 1918 or so. Not sure if the razor is that old or not.
