    Question Crown Barber Supply Co.

    I just got and restored a Crown Barber Supply Co. razor today, it says New York Made in Germany also. The razor has the name Perfecto inlaid in gold on the tang. I could not find any information on this razor at all, anyone know anything about these razors?

    I have two similar razors but sold by Peter J. Michels.

    Yeah it's about the thinnest razor I have ever seen. Must be made of good steel tho because it takes a nice edge. If anyone knows anything about it I'd be happy to hear it.

    Now that I have my pics at hand, here are pics of one of the PJM's. They are great shavers.

    Probably, you're right.
    Crown Barber Supply Co. was an importer company.
    And the razor was made by Carl Friedrich Ern for them.
