    Yes - after googling for a bit I found one, too:

    Name: WB FBU.JPG Views: 320 Size: 19.4 KB

    but what we have both failed to have seen is that the OPs razor is not an FBU - it's an FBO (For Barbers Only) - that might or might not (probably not!) have some bearing on the matter!

    Regards,
    Neil

    My FBO has the same tang stamp as that pictured in the OP.

    Maybe I got it the wrong war round then Jimmy - the FBUs do and the FBOs dont?!

    I have a FBU that has the same stamp as the one pictured. No Arrow and Cross. Clear as mud now....

    unrelated to the topic but there's a thread in the eBay section about this same razor and why it should be avoided but completely unrelated to the W&B stamp. Just a heads up
