    Default It's time to play - Guess that mark!!

    Hey folks - Have just unpinned a very sorry looking razor upon which to inflict some serious restoration - thing is though I have no idea what the celluloid tang cover once said. Does anything in the picture jump out at you as familiar? I initially though the logo was a Taylor's 'Eye-Witness' eye but now i'm not sure.

    Thanks!

    I have seen Diamond Hayashi razors with a covered tang and a sun similar to that in your pic...
    No clue if that's what it is though

    Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years....

    Oh well, whoever made her - 'The Australian' is turing into quite a cool razor!



    Sadly the mark in question went with the dust as I evened out the deep wear from the scales.
