Tiny trusses (?) cyrillic (?) razor. Tortoise and silver
I went outside today after my finals, and stop by a friend of mine, who's got a cabinet of curiosities. He's got razors from time to time, and I like to discuss with him.
He saw me and said "Eh, I got something for you !"
Man.... You're actually doing it right !
The razor is small, 5,7 inches long, tang included, and the blade itself is 5 inches long, tang included (scales are 5,3).
With an interesting stamp. Don't know if the mark failed or if it's written in Cyrillic ?
Anyway, I'm glad that I stopped by
I owe him one with this !Last edited by Thaeris; 06-26-2014 at 04:14 PM.

That's mysterious!
I think if it were Cyrillic (or an associated script) that third character would be backwards: Ч

Another friend told me he had a "Bahic à Saint Brieuc", so it's maybe a clue here for this one

Yeah, the busted stamp looks like a much better theory. I can definitely see 'BAHIC' being the first line.
The second one though, pretty definitely not 'Ã Saint Brieuc'. Were there multiple guys named Bahic making razors? The only one I could find in a cursory and machine-translated search was a guy who seemed to make printing equipment.-Zak Jarvis. Writer. Artist. Bon vivant.

He also had this little beauty, but she won't stay long at my place :
She's going to take off soon to another's place.
Beautiful and heavy, I'm glad I had the chance to have one in my hands.

Ivory ball?
The older I get the more I realize how little I actually know.

At least for a moment, here he is with another blade in a better shape :
