    Default J.A. Henckels 12 .....Restored

    I found this razor in a local antique shop the blade had a nice patina and the horn scales were slightly delaminateing. So I took her apart wet sanded and buffed the horn scales, wet sanded and buffed the blade and pinned her with brass pins and domed washers. The blade honed up real nice turned out to be a sweet shaver.( Sorry didnt take before pictures)
    Does anyone know the signifigance of the numbering on the tang, this one is stamped 12. And perhaps would anyone be able to date this razor
    Thanks Tony

    Sorry I can't help with a date. The number question has been asked before and since the plant was bombed in WWII there are no records that relate to the numbering that anyone has found as of yet. Very nice restore!!
