Info needed on A. Feist & Co Luna 42 straight razor

So for a hand full of euros (6) I got me this straight razor:


A worn razor with inscriptions Luna 42 and the luna logo.
Luna is A. Feist & Co I found out. The moon logo resembles the logo below:




after some quick polishing. What is 42? 1942?

The box is Tückmar Silber-Stahl Solingen (Beste Qualität) but I guess is not original combination with the Luna razor. Both german and Solingen based but that's it.


Can't read the tang. Needs more polishing. Edit: with my watchmakers loup I read: MadeInGermany...



Wondering what material the scales are made of. Some wood with some finishing which is falling apart.


Both the case and the finish are also coming off because the noobs of the store put heavily adhesive price tags on it... omg




hollow, no clue about width. Point can be called round i guess.

Any clues about details, age, etc? And what is the 42 on the shank?

Btw, my first straight. Don't know if i dare to use it after restoration. Don't have a strop or hone either.

with a telephone number of 169, I doubt the 42 refers to 1942. Maybe how many they sold?

thx for the reply.

The image with the telephone number is a random find of google images and is not related to my razor. Sooo... still could be 1942!

Personally I wouldn't waste any time making that razor shave ready. It's too small, and the frown needs honing out, which will make it even smaller, not a good first straight... (IMO)
