Razor identification
Hello guys, I received some days ago my first straight razor from the whipped dog. It is a great looking razor and I want to learn more about it. Can anyone identify the brand of the razor of even share any other info?

Looks German to me. AND it's a fine looking razor.

There's a certain someone if I recall, Glen???, that has a soft spot for leaders. From what I know, amazing shavers and a gorgeous razor you got there!

Thank you alll for your replies!!! I have searched the forum trying to find info about Leader razors but the thing is that the ones I have came across in photos always have "LEADER" stamped on the blade too while mine doesn't.

Woo hoo, the dog strikes again. Nice, nice, nice. I have a C-Mon HF that looks very similar. Mine's an extreme hollow grind and an exceptional shaver.

I saw Larry's inventory last week. He's got some really nice razors in. That looks to be no exception. Sorry I dont have any inormation on your particular razor, but it is a beauty.

Looks to me like a FW Engels "Leader" if i was going by the look of the scales. Maybe they made a Barbers Delight model and put them in Leader style scales.
