    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.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    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!

    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.
