Thread: Any Info on These Brands?

I have some razors that I picked up on ebay and I couldn't find any info on several of the manufacturers. If anyone can give me some info on them, especially concerning their performance and quality, I'd really appreciate it. The razors are:
EMPEROR WILLIAM, Made and Ground in Germany. On the back it has H.H. LANG, SOLE AGENT, PHILA, PA (has bone scales)

A razor by The American Products Co.

One by Geo. W. Korn Razor Mfg. Co.

And the last by Mulcuto
So which one do you think would make the best shaver? All of these razors are in good condition (according to the noob ) with some hone wear and oxidation, but almost no pitting. The Korn razor looks great, minus a few light rust spots.

Pictures? We want pictures.

I'd have the Korn, if they were all as good as each other or if there wasn't much in it.

Pictures really do help. As you have them you might as well use them all.

Here are some photos of the razors. Sorry for the bad quality, photography isn't my strong point:

Emperor William:



I'm especially curious about this one, I have found absolutely no info on it at all.

American Products Co.


The engraving is hard to read, probably because of the texture on the tang.

Continued from last post:

Geo. W. Korn:



Looking at it again, it's not in as good a condition as I thought, but its still better than the other 4 pictured here.

Mulcuto:




The mulcuto came with scales attached. I unpinned it as my first restoration project.

If you want to off load the american products, I'm interested. Fancy a hammered tang.

Good luck with the resto.

I see you have good taste in production knives too
What Spydie is in the box?

Good to see another knife lover here! Its the box for my zdp delica.

Hmm...so no one has any info on these brands?

That Hammered Tang one catches my eye as well. Is the Name "American Products Co." or are there other markings. Can't tell from the picture.

I love hammered tang razors
