    Default P.O. JONSSON Orebro??information

    Hi all

    I am looking at a razor from P.O. Jonnsson, Orebro Sweden.
    Any information on the maker? Good, bad?

    Thanks

    I can't specifically help you but in general all the vintage swedish razors are super razors. personally I think they are better than the Solingens. I think most of the swedish shavers date around 1900 before Solingen really took over.

    Nothing comes up on P.O. Jonsson Örebro on Google, part from auction sales and questions on forums.
    A.B. means "stock holding company"
    In magnification it looks like it says Heljestrand on the tang.

    I suspect that the company P.O. Jonsson ordered a batch, with their name on the blade.

    Thank you for the information. Thebigspendur, yes, I have been told that to, old Swedish razors are very good, some say the best back then.

    Olav Vittfarne, thank you. Yes, I did look at that to. Maybe so, a small shop/dealer who had so. Thank you.
