Thread: Livesteel Razor

Hello everyone this is my first post, I just joined today but I have been reading and researching for a few months and I am really enjoying this shaving culture and haven't even shaved with a straight razor yet.

I have purchased a few razors that are on their way through the mail but one of my purchases was quite impulsive, it kind of jumped out at me. It was a vintage Livesteel razor I got off of ebay here is the link.

I have looked around and can't find any information about them or the company and was wondering if anyone could please tell me a little bit about them.

Thanks for all the help so far,

Duncan.

Ebay link not reaching your target.

Yeah I suck...lol here is the real link

Welcome to SRP. I don't know the razor but it is a vintage piece and full bladed so chances are it is of good quality. Here is the SRP beginner's guide and here are the member services in the classifieds where you can find someone to hone your razors to shave ready.

i think that blade has been shortened?

Good eye hi_bud_gl you were dead on, it has been shortened no wonder it was quite inexpensive. I purchased this to practice my honing, looks like someone honed the tip off...lol.

Does anyone happen to know anything about these Livesteel razors? I can't find much at all and the only information off the razor is that it says F.H. Loeffler Co. ROCHESTER N.Y.

I'd like to know too. I have one:
F.H. LOEFFLER
ROCHESTER, N.Y.
MADE IN GERMANY
