    Default Help!!! with an ID

    Found this razor at a flea market. It looks like a frame back, but it's not the blade in the back, it's a back made to cover the blade [ pic 5 ].
    Also, any idea what it says? [pics 1,2,6] and marking on tang? [pic 3 ]
    Any input about the razor would be appreciated.
    Pics below

    That way of making framebacks were pretty common.
    Can't help with date, sorry.

    Nice swedish frameback you got there, I got several EAB's and they are great shavers.

    From what I have seen the typical logo for EA Berg is the shark, but this has an interesting stamp on the tip of the finger rest which may be 2 overlapping circles.
    Nice razor.
