Thread: "Royal Blue" ?

A buddy of mine just gave me the straight razor his uncle used. (who died 40yrs or so ago).

The only marking is "Royal Blue" on the tang. I think the scales are bakelite in a light yellow.

Anybody know anything of this,?

Thanks!

I'm straining my eyes but I can't see the pictures. LOL

The only razor I've seen so far is Royal Blue Diamond - M. Sax Philadelphia, PA. Made in Germany.

If Royal Blue is the only stamping you see then it could be that one or just anything else for that matter.

Thanks,, sorry i am without a camera at the moment..

royal blue is all that is on it,.. It is supposed to be very old any markings on the blade (if ever present) are gone,

thanks again..

I have a Royal Blue razor, it is a smallish 5/8 wedge with green plastic scales. It is one of my favorite razors to shave with. It is sweet to shave with, but not much to look at. I wish I had another one.

Thanks Charlie.. sounds like mine only really pale yellow scales. This was owned by a pure working man so nothing fancy.

do you know anything about them??

Kirk

I do not know anything about the manufacture, I have always thought of it a more or less generic (but great shaving) razor.
