    Default I.D. Query: Levering Razor Co., New York

    I have a razor marked thusly on the tang, and has a gold inlay as follows:

    UNRIVALLED
    Mail Pouch
    FULLY WARRANTED

    It shaves really nicely; far better than my modern Dovo does.
    About as good as my vintage Henckels 81 Emperor.

    Has anyone heard of these, and if so, what's the scoop?

    Why yes; yes they are.

    I am up to nine shave ready razors. The Dovo from Vintage blades; one honed by a member here after I cleaned it up and reset the bevel, and seven vintage ones that I have cleaned up and honed.

    This is fun stuff.

    Tomorrow's shave is a "Little Shaver" by Pabst & Kohler.

    I will have a wildly unmatched seven-day set chosen after I work through the pack again after doing the final lapping on 0.5 micron film and stropping.

    I wanted to know more about this Mail Pouch Levering since it shaved so nicely.
