I'm new to straight razor. I mainly collect old knifes/Bowie's. I brought this razor at a flea market. On one side it has 907 Sanda Cutlery CO. On the other side it has S. & A. Germany each razor magnetized. Can anyone help me with any an all info. I only paid 20$ for the razor. Thank you
Your razor was retailed by Sanda Cutlery and was made in Germany by an unknown manufacturer probably sometime between the world wars. During these years Germany was flooding the U.S. with inexpensive razors which were stamped with the retailer's name. Hardware stores, barber supply companies, cutlery outlets, department stores, etc. etc., all had a personalized line of razors to sell. Quality varies since the same retailer could be getting razors from a variety of sources. But, most are very good shavers.
