Weck Razor, Military Background?
For a longer Time i have this nice all metal Weck Razor now and shaved with it yesterday (it was really a pleasure, a very nice shave).
All the Time i have it i wonder if it has a military Background and what the M.D. U.S.N. on the Scales might mean, does anyone have
a clue what this stamp stands for?

M.D USN. Medical Department US Navy.
At a guess they would have been used to shave patients like Wapiencas did. They were all steel so they could be autoclaved.Last edited by markbignosekelly; 12-14-2015 at 06:36 PM. Reason: Illiterate
