L.H. Mack = Mack the Knife
I just shaved again with this little razor again this morning......
I got this as part of a lot of 22 razors off e-bay which scored me 12 really nice blades and 8 others that were virtually unknowns(2 had chipped blades) this was one of the unknowns...
It is by far one of the smoothest shaving razors I own, it is a small 2.75 inch blade and a 4/8 width, spike point. On the show side it says "L.H. Mack Columbus O." on the reverse it says "Standard" and "Made in Germany" This razor puts everything else in the stable to shame, with how precise, and easily it shaves. and there are some nice stable mates that it competes with (DD'S, Dovo's, Filarmonica's, Boker's, Bengall's etc) I have never found any reference to this brand in any of the manufacturers listings I was wondering if anyone else has seen one of these????
And yes I can't help but hum the old tune "Mack the Knife" while I'm shaving with this little wonder....:D

Rescaled and looking sweet
I rescaled the little "Mac the Knife" with some Candy Cane celluloids.... With a new brass wedge and new brass pins....
Since first posting about this razor back in Oct it has moved totally to the top of the entire stable of razors.....
No other razor gives as close and as smooth a shave as this unknown!!!
I have never seen another with the name and I am still interested in any info that anyone might have on this brand....
