Junk store find , any ideas what I have ? Cost ten
I think they also made scissors. A respected brand, to my knowledge. Get it honed and let us know how it shaved.
Second one came in a nice wade and butcher box
WISS was, and is, good goods! I'm glad you honed to good steel so soon, the blade is worth the effort.

Just honed the one from Sheffield and had my first straight razor shave ! And lived to tell about it ... had to finish some spots with the de but I will call it a success .. no blood no nicks ..the hone job needs to go to the next level , I only have the Norton 4000/8000 stone. I will order a 1000 and 12000 , I can see having a smile on the blade makes honing more of a challenge I will go back through and do that blade again, happy with my ten dollar investment
