We have no idea about them, either.

Try posting pics. A razor has a "show" side and a "back" or "down" side. The show side is the one with usually the most stamping or etching. If you open the razor a bit and the scales (you probably think they are a handle but they are not. They are not for gripping the razor, only for protecting it.) are angled downward and the razor itself (the "blade") is angled upward, you are looking at the show side. Open it all the way up, so the scales and razor are more or less inline. With the edge down, the top part where it is thickened, is the spine. The bottom of course is the edge. The corner bit of the edge nearest the pivot is the heel. The corner but of the edge all the way out at the tip end is the toe. The very end of the blade is the nose. The narrow part that goes back to the pivot pin is the shank. The part from the pivot back to the monkey tail looking bit is the tang, though the terms "tang" and "shank" are also sometimes used for the whole handle area. The part that looks like a curly monkey tail is the monkeytail. The pivot is of course the pin which forms a joint allowing the razor to be closed up between the scales, or opened up for use. Now you have the nomenclature.

Readers who might respond will be very interested in any stamping on the shank, as well as any etching on the wide open "billboard" area of the blade. Also any bolsters on the scales or any inlaid silver wire or whatever. So you want careful lighting for good contrast, and good closeup pics to post.

You might begin with maybe 4 or 5 of them, partly open, in one pic, just for an overview, and then the requisite closeups.

Once you have posted good, clear pics, someone can tell you what you have or probably have, and whether it is junk or something usable or restorable.

Other clues might be the circumstances of the "giving", particularly who gave them and why, and where they came from before that.

You might also want to introduce yourself to the members. https://sharprazorpalace.com/member-introductions/ and tell us a little about yourself.
