I've seen other high quality blades from that era and more recently with a similar bit of info stamped on the blade or on the box. I seem to recall reading, maybe in Robert A Doyle's book, that the Germans perfected hollow grinding before anyone else. Anyway, nice score.
Which book is that? What's a good book you'd recommend if I was going to get just one book on razors?
