    Default Hello, and what is this?

    Hello all. I am new around these parts, and trying to be patient and smart before I begin my journey. I have been doing a lot of lurking and reading. I am still full of questions, even after going through the wiki and FAQs and newbie advice sections numerous times. But all that is just background.
    What is bugging me right now is this razor I bought at a local antique shop. Have looked at many for a month or two, and finally picked this one up. It has the nicest, cleanest, least-used blade of the ones I saw. Seems like it is nearly usable as is. Don't worry, I won't try. I will be sending it shortly to someone to hone and prepare it for me. That will also force me to be apart and not tempted by it while I figure out what else I am going to get before I take the plunge.
    So, any ideas on the maker and/or seller? I thought the trident meant Wusthoff, but it looks unlike their logo.
    I was guessing that the P. Wiesenfeld, Chicago is maybe a barber supply company or something that had the units stamped for them by the German maker. But I have nothing to base that on. Was that even done?
    The box is not the original, so it offers no clue.
    Anyways, I leave it up to your collective wisdom (or wild ass guesses) to come up with something more definite, or imaginative.
    Walt, is it in the Goins book?

    Cheers!
