    Default Army & Navy Imperial razor 20507 Germany

    Sometimes it is just luck, for a few bucks you can get quite rare razor. That's funny, according to Bill Schroeder, he rated that Imperial higher than Ducks Some slight rust, pitting and patina, but not for a long. Actually I have one Imperial on my permanent rotation and love it. I will make better pictures later, have fun

    Nice one! From the uniforms in the etching, looks to be pre-1900. Was made by A. Kastor & Brothers, 1886-1945.

    This razor and razors with U.S. Battleship Indiana were made after 1898, the war with Spain.

    Just a little bit of cleaning, and here it is. Sometimes it is a good idea not to have you lens too sharp Bakelite handle actually not black, it is kind of "greenish black".
