Do you have a picture or additional information from the blade, tang or scales?

"Karbono razor" - Google Search. Looks like Karbono is the Esperanto word for carbon. Pictures would help.

Thanks

I know, it's been a while since this thread has been launched, but it maybe still of interest.
I'm a absolut newby in straight razor, but You're lucky my first (and until now only) straight razor is a Karbono including the original box.
Karbono Spezial-Stahl (Karbono Special Steel) is or was http://img23.imageshack.us/i/karbono1.jpg/ a brand of the german company J. Vöhringer in Stuttgart (Hometown of Daimler-Benz (Mercedes)).
Here are some pics of my Karbono:
