Thread: Bresnick -Puma

I have a Puma/Bresnick and it is just like yours including the very plain black scales.

Here's a few, all good shavers. One with "Solingen" in the scales is probably a rescale. Congrats, if yours is anything like mine it ought to be a good shaver.

Gee! Those are rare! I would suppose that Bresick bought and sold some Pumas for a period. It must have been a short run? Nice Work to you both!

Besnick didn't make razors. They were an importer and distributor of barber's supplies in general. They eventually became bresduck and then Pearlduck but they bought the razors with their logo on them from various outfits over the years. Puma was one of them. Who else made them, or if Puma made them all, is anybody's guess. Their stuff was always top shelf though.

Never said they did, but good info! I wonder how many makes have Bresnick on the tang?

Thanks for the info guys. I am really looking forward to getting this one into shaving shape. Between scoring this razor, a Richard Schmitz seven day set, and a mint Schlieper eye brand recently I should be good to go for a while................Yeah right..LOL!

Uh, I live in Houston and the Sam quote alllmost brought a tear! Nice!

We've seen a few. probably 3 or 4. I know there are some French made ones floating around and I've seen a couple of others whose names escape me now.
