    Default 4 Unknown Razors... Help Please

    Hey guys, im stoked to see theres people out in the world that still have a liking for old world tradition. I have come to own four differant razors all with black handles and I was wondering if anybody could tell me where each of these stack up for quality.

    all of the razors have black plastic looking handles all with two rivets.

    the first has the number 20 on the tang of the blade followed by Hartford Cutlery, hartford Connenticut with "extra hollow ground on the blade itself.

    the second has the word queen in the center of the handle and blade with Henery Sears and Son and 18C5 on the front of the tang and the number 552 on the reverse side of the tang.

    the third has the word columbia on the front of the tang and on the reverse, R. H. Hegener Minneapolis Minn. made in Germany

    the fourth has NO. 421 Barber's Pet on the front tang and on the reverse tang Simmon's HDWE. CO. USA

    THanks for your help

    If it's not 'Henry' and '1865' then it's a knockoff. The first three are quality brands, I have not heard of the fourth

    Barber's Pet was one of C.F. Ern's . Nice shavers .
