I traded a breakfast for this razor that a local antique store owner and good friend came across. He's started bringing any razors he comes across in his dealings to me first and I usually take them off of his hands. Since it wasn't a Boker, Griffon, ect. that he sees, he brught it in to me rather than I meet him at his store. It's not the prettiest but it is above the usual average of what he gets.

Both the case and the tang have the same text with no signs of etching on the blade. The front and cover to the case have the text 'High Flier' with the back and body of the case saying 'W.J Leonard, Brockton Mass.' and 'Germany'. I've not been able to find out for sure whether W.J Leonard was a dealer or the actual maker.

Pardon the bad images, I'm overdue for a tripod and a new camera. I'm also just now noticing that I've neglected to take a picture of the blade itself. I'll see about grabbing one later today after work.



The case, a lovely purple.


The razor itself, not sure of scale material.
