    Default help identify, please?

    Just got this and was wondering if someone could help identify it. The box says Robert Schaff solingen, but I don't know if it's the correct box for it. Thanks!

    Thanks for the link. I'll probably never know the maker, unless the box it came with is the real box. No matter, it's a nice looking razor. Just need to get it honed.
