Anybody know what this is? The "H" symbol is the only thing on the blade.

if my memory serves correctly that is their symbol....
Keep in mind this is just a guess I don't have another of their razors to compare it to.... but I think I saw that symbol on an ebay razor
Sorry I couldn't be of more definite help....
I think the H. may be for H. Boker. I discussed that razor when it was up for auction with Doc and I think he had the same idea. If the covered tang ever starts to break down, you'd be able to see the makers mark, and I think it would be H. Boker.
But I am just guessing too....
It may be a boker. Here is a picture of a boker I have the scales are pretty close but the engravings are different.

It is my belief that its a Boker but could be wrong. Wouldnt be the first time.
What type of razor? Looks like a so called "straight razor" to me. I heard people used them for shaving a long time ago. :w
(I also think it's a Boker)
