    Default Hamburg, No. 49

    Went out to the antique shops with the Mrs. the other day. Found the usual junky razors with their tips chipped off or honed away. Did see a little 4/8 Henckles and a 4/8 Torrey 1/4 hollow that intrigued me a bit. Then I saw this case:


    I figured that must be something special, so I got the lady to open the cabinet in which it was sitting. Found me a gem inside.




    It didn't need much more than a touch up to get it up and shaving. The etched name on the tang is the only marking on it. Anybody know anything about one of these? All I know is that it's a great shaver.

    There are four pics in the above post. Or at least I see them, lol. Maybe I did something wrong. Let me see if I can fix it.
