    With a name like that, it should be a fantastic razor.

    neverr seen a razor like that before not sure who made it. But of course the saying "Veni. Vidi. Vici." is the famous saying (in Latin) of Julius Ceaser after conquering the Gauls. "I came. I saw. I conquered." Being a military man you probably know this though. Anyway nice razor sorry cant help more.

    Semper Fi

    A Solingen razor, inscribed "Veni Vidi Vici." Is there anything NOT to like about such a razor?

    if it is made by Carl Schaaf that would mean this razor was made before 1932.....

    VENI VIDI VICI (<1932): Carl Schaaf,

    Thats a great razor! I have one myself, maybe sold only in Holland? It sharpens real good (with the right stone...)
    Does the razor have an inscription A.M. on the other side? I've tried to figure out what that meant...
