Need help identifying razor.
I recently acquired a razor from goodwill for about 10$, but have been unable to find any info on it. It is a square point, full or singing hollow blade, looks to have been rescaled. The imprint reads
"West REC M'F'G
Field NY CO."
Has anyone heard of this razor manufacturer?

Would it be possible to post a clear photo of your razor showing all the stampings on the tang?

Thanked: 312 Westfield Mfg. Co.
Wow, I asked for a clear photo of all the stampings on the tang and that sure is clear. . . . . and LARGE!!
Your razor was sold by the Westfield Manufacturing Co., but the only reference I could find in Goins'
Encyclopedia mentions a "Made in Germany" stamp. Is Germany stamped on the reverse side of the tang?
There isn't much in the way of information regarding your razor. Maybe someone else will come along with more details.

ps Try and reduce the size of your photos to about 600 pixels wide so we can see them without scrolling.

The back side of the tang does not have any markings on it, or anywhere else on the razor.

Thanked: 0 Dudleys Dollar brand razor
Walt-
New member-
Was curious about a razor that belonged to my father-in-law. The brand is "Dudleys Dollar". It appear to be in excellent condition. It's pretty old.
Ever hear of this brand?
Thanks

Flynnstar - Welcome to SRP. Sorry I couldn't find any details about the Dudley Dollar or where it was manufactured. I saw one listed in a Tennessee auction from last year. Sometimes a clear photo of the razor and its markings might provide a clue. But, if you do send a photo be sure and start a new thread and don't tack it on to another thread that is unrelated to your subject.
Regards - Walt
