SWMBO Hunts for vintage bags and I find more R.A.D. Acquisitions !
So today I found and bought two straights while out with the wife and my little man (hes 6 going on 16).
I would greatly appreciate any info you gentlemen can give me on either one.
The first one is a Henckel it looks to be 5/8 it has a bit of hone wear on one side it says JA Henckel Twin works solingen germany and on the other it reads Edward Weck New York.It has a black plasticscale that loks like it may not be the original.
The other one , which I have quickly grown very fond of Is a Diamondine 5/8 with a beautiful yellow and subtlety stripped scale (dont think the stripes come through in the pics).It has much less hone wear but has a bit of rust that looks like it will be easily removed One side reads Diamondine with the number 1007 above and what appears to be a half horse half fish logo below . Its really more half n half than it is a sea horse lol. The other side reas Von Cleff & Co. new york made in germany

Congrats on a nice score!!
I can't give you any history on your razors but I can say that I have a few Henckels and Dimondine razors and they are fine shavers!
