    Default ID help please

    Hi everyone, just trying to identify a few razors and find out if they're any good.
    this one just says Willott with a nice Solingen along the blade, nice feeling but I've been unable to find any info on Willott?




    This one was my grandfathers, pretty small but feel pretty good in my hands, again I'm not sure how good these are?



    This says euneso and also has the Solingen along the blade but it's highly faded. This thing is just huge but I'm not sure how good it could be?



    Thanks for any help!

    The Willott was made by Otto Willms, Solingen - they were located at Berger-Strasse 42 in 1939. They also made the "Willott Special."

    Hey thanks Neil, do you know if these could be considered 'pretty good' razors?

    Hi - I haven't had any personal experience of one, but as a pedigree made and ground in Solingen means that they must have been well above average!
