Maybe it was a gift to W.L.F. dated 1921.

I can't tell you anything about the razor , but I have a box identical to yours . Mine came with a Swedish razor in it . I would guess that the company would supply a box for the razors they worked on .

Welcome to SRP.
First off we don't do razor valuations on this site. The value varies between people. As to your razor, I really don't know anything about the razor stamps. I do not see any similarities between the razor and the box. Most often the box and razor do not match. It looks like a decent razor. Have it professionally honed and shave with it. That's the best way to see what it's worth to you. Let us know if you have any wet shaving questions or need help in the use of straight razors. We'll be happy to assist.“If you always do what you always did, you will always get what you always got.” (A. Einstein)
