    Default Peroux Cognet

    Anyone has any information about history and/or quality of this razor maker? I have one stamped "Le Talisman". Feels very slick and well constructed is a frameback with dark horn scales.

    Any points are appreciated,

    Nice looking razor. I just hope no one wants to know how it's pronounced.

    Looks like a pretty typical vintage French frameback. I happen to like how they shave.

    It may have been made by Jacques LeCoultre, and it is definitely a LeCoultre pattern razor. I like how they shave, too! Good catch.

    Actually I have a Peroux Cognet being rescaled in horn right now. It's not a frameback, though.
    This brand is a good french brand, similar to the Jacques LeCoultre in my opinion.

    How it's pronounced? Peh-Roo Coe-Niet (the "T" is silent)
