yea right, I found (google). But am curious how old the the razor is.
Dumas Aine32 which makes kitchen knives etc. I have found, but could not find anything about razors.

If you post a picture of the whole razor, it might give some clues to age.


Here's some more info.

MEDAILLE DUMAS AINE 32 was registered by Jean Girard Dumas et Pierre Dumas as a trademark in 1858 so it's not before then.

Thanks for the info this far. How did you get this information, i find myself crazy on the internet.

I found the info on the internet. You've just got to know where to look.

tell where you search the Internet. (Pfff at home I guess )
Seriously, there are certain websites that display this info? What are they?

There is the Madrid Trade Accords of 1891 that requires a razor maker (any mfg) to put the country of origin as well as the city to be on the razor. This was agreed to so their trade mark would be protected internationally. So more than likely it's older than that.

No matter the age, that's a good looking razor! How does she shave?
