Stefan, you clearly found my wife's father's razor. You can return it to me and I will ensure Mr. Takahashi receives it in due course!

Beautiful finds...

I have seen Cape77 that also said Tanifuji on it, so I guess it was made by them.

Will post some pics in the morning,The cape is Identicle to the tanifuji with a shorter blade.
just says cape,650,swedish steel,on the opposite side is perfectworks,silver steel.
No kanji like the tanifuji which has,666,tanifuji silver steel,kanji on the other side.

Very nice razors Stefan! Let us know how they hone and shave.

Later,
Richard

Wow. Those are gorgeous. Someday I'll get my hands on some Japanese steel.

Japanese straights make great shavers, those guys like to use top notch steel on their tools.
I have tried many different brands and they all shave great.

Man, what a couple of fine razors.. Great finds!!!
