Interesting crown and sword stamps... are they fake?
Hey, I saw a razor on ebay that is "Two Crown Sword" also stamped ERN in greek letters (epsilon rho nu, looks like a wierd E, P, N)
Also, the second picture is a "Sword" that looks like the Crown and Sword, without the Crown. Also marked ERN, and visible is the Solingen stamp.

While I cannot speak to the authenticity of the razor I can say that we had a thread here that spoke about the ERN razors. It turned out that 6 companies used those letters, but all had different hallmarks. I guess the most famous of the ERNs is the Snake and Eagle hallmark, which I believe is what prompted the conversation.
Your razor maybe a real ERN from another company.
Don't know if this helps.

It is original ERN, there is a stamp without a crown, only a sword.

Singlewedge, do you have a link to that thread? My first blade was an ERN Gong, I'd be interested to see if it's mentioned.

I just picked up a razor with the 1896 logo etched on the blade. Spanish point. Tang has two lines stamped:
Non plus ultra
Made in Germany
Anyone with more info? Manah, do you have a book you're referencing?
I'm debating whether to have it repinned in black horn.
Thank you!
