After epd told me that it's an E L & Co, I was able to locate photos of other like it online. The scales do appear to be original.

They're definitely masonic symbols. You can get a closer look at them here.

Oh man!! Nice find....Yes I am jealous!

That's one cool looking razor you got there.

I looked up 9/8 razor in the completed listings on eBay. Judging by the final price on these razors, I'd say that at $10 I got a steal!

Thats one hell of a find,Congrats! Are you going to post finnish product pics?

You bet I will!

Very cool. The scales look replaced - the originals were most likely horn. I'd love to find one of those for $10.

I've found others similar to it online with identical scales. They do appear to be original.

Thats not really a razor, it's the ax that Washington used to cut down the cherry tree!
Nice Find.

I'd like to know where your finding these online! Please share your links here or in the other threads if you can as my searches have come up pretty empty.
The 2 I have and the one that Joed has all have identical horn scales with pointed tops. The others I have seen online (only 2) one was rescaled in some fancy wood and the other has some celluloid scales.
