    Default New Antique Razors: Wolfertz and unknown??

    Here are a couple of straights that I recently picked up. The first one, I have no idea what it is. The trademark o the tang looks half worn off. Any help identifying it? Any idea what the scales are made of, horn maybe?





    This next one is special. At least I think it it. The markings say C.F. Wolfertz & CO, Allentown, PA, but that it not what makes it special in my book. Check out the scales. These babies are hand made all the way. Looks like someone took whatever scrap they had laying around to do it too. The wood is crudely finished, the two sides are a different material and the spacer is made of reinforced rubber (tire rubber maybe?). What I see in this razor is love. Someone sure loved this razor and what I am thinking is that the scales broke, but they wanted to keep using it, so they made their own. I see pride in the workmanship here. I wouldn't change a thing about it. Can anyone tell me anything about the blade?
