Thread: Identification Question

hey all, I've been lurking for a bit and recently got into shaving with a straight. My first purchase was off ebay and I was wondering if you guys could tell me if this was a koken barber supply razor or if not who made it.



The box says Koken Crank but the blade only has Garantie Solingen on the tang. It doesn't really matter as it is a good shaver once I got it honed but the old history student in me wants to know everything I can about my tools.

Thanks,

Corey

In my Goin's i only see 2 entries and both not much help

WR Garantie Germany g. 1920-40 "W. Willms Germany" is stamped on the tail of the razor
or
Garantie g. 1900-20

I own a Koken razor, they are soligen made but they usually make there mark somewhere on the shank. you could just have a random box.

I have 7 days set from the same company. Still in NOS conditions as I have never had time to hone it.
