    Default Amor Razor

    Hello,

    Looking for some help. Friend of mine inherrited 2 razors a Puma which I found lots of information on and a Amor. Best I can figure this must be a "Amor" by Wilhelm Noelle, Solingen. Can anyone help me out with identifying his razor and more information on Wilhelm Noelle if I am correct. I found these razors online but I did not see anything about them in the straight razor wiki.

    Thanks

    Photos are the best help you can provide in identifying razors. Especially clear, readable closeups of any etching, stampings or other individual features. Not only is it helpful in identifying your razor, we just like to see razors we haven't seen before.

    Yea, man! Need pics.

    As a general rule a razor with Solingen on it is a good razor and made in Germany. Amor was probably the name of the establishment that sold it. Maybe a more experienced senior member will chime in with more details.

    Also, did I mention we need pics?

    My friend doesn't have a digital camera. I will take a picture of the actual blade next time I get over to his house (few hours away). He did find a almost identical (in better condition) razor online. I attached the picture here to try to help identify it.

    I'll get some closeups on here as soon as I can find an excuse to get over there. It's not clear but on the blade to the left of AMOR that's a 87 (also printed on the box). Thanks for the help.

    sorry I don't have any information other than it's a german made blade so odds are it's going to hone up nicely and shave well. I lost an Amor on Ebay awhile ago, I still want to add one to my collection.

    One of many fine Solingen brands from the past. You can't go wrong with them.
