I don’t recall that razor. Is it new or have I not been paying enough attention?

Fairly new, that was my second use. Nice find, a local razor maker who had his work shop a short walk from my apartment, and his retail shop even closer. Started in the late 1800s, closed in the 1930s.
The razor is polished, including the hollow ground area, and the text is etched very deeply. Weirdly high quality finish. Makes me think the the scales are new.
The thing is in mint condition, too, and I got it for about USD 50 shipped.

Wow! Now that’s a keeper!! My two Ern razors were in the $40-$50 range, but neither is close to mint condition.

There’s a Swiss collector who has started dissolving their collection on a local eBay competitor. I’m hoping to get my hands on the TI Fox and Rooster and the Frio Kullenrücken in the bottom right corner
