Antique Store finds: Mulcuto, Kropp, Ohio
I recently picked up these three razors, and I'm wondering if anyone can tell me anything about them.

I'm very curious about this one, especially the scales. Anyone know what they are? Are they the original scales? On the front, the pin near the blade looks a bit beat up, like it was replaced or something. And the scales are scraping the words on the handle too. This one had a lot of rust on one side of the blade. I did what I could with some 0000 steel wool and some Maas. Not too bad, might hit it with some more Maas before sending it out for honing.

This one looks brand new. No rust, very clean, and edge didn't appear to have any use.
