    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.

    Default Karbono: German Brand (info)

    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 a brand of the german company J. Vöhringer in Stuttgart (Hometown of Daimler-Benz (Mercedes)).

    Here are some pics of my Karbono:


    Karbono Special Steel | Guarantee Brand





    Text inside:
    This straight razor has been proofed bevore shipping and it is guaranteed for its sharpness. Look for the name and brand.





    Greetings from Germany!

    I guess my Karbono is post 1940.
    I don't know the details, because I've got it from a friend, who's got it from his father, who lived in Stuttgart.
    But as You can see on the pic below, there is a stamp on the tang "J. Vöhringer - Stuttgart".
