    Default Old Frenchie in Ivory

    Hey all, just got this one in and cleaned up. One of my new favorites. I love the blade work, and the ivories are just perfect. Adding to my growing collection of old French razors - new territory for me! If I'm reading it right, it's made by Carlier from Cambrai (Cambrai - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).

    Nice looking razor, the only mention i found of a "coutelier" (cutler) in the Cambrai region of France was a statement about Émile Joseph Nestor Carlier a sculptor born in Cambrai in 1849 but his father was a cutler, so perhaps.....Émile Joseph Nestor Carlier - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
