Thread: a box of old straights led me here

Hello my name is Dave i was given a box of old straight razors from my grand mother.. my great grandfather was a barber for many years. I am looking to get more information about the razors he used..

The following is a list of the razors i have
1. Bresduck dubl duck hair thinning razor patent pending solingen germany
2. Jassiano & co solingen germany
3. John s holler & co yellow handle germany The tower brand 101
4.fram with two stars one before the f and one after the m other side just says ground in germany
5. Herm konejun with a pair of eye glasses before the name
6. Mamon excelent quality reverse side says made in germany
7. Bresmark yellow handle back side says make in germany solingen

All i know is my great grandpa was a barber from around the early 20s up until mid 80s he gave me my first hair cut as a child.

Photos would be helpful. We all like razor porn. And what a great family connection.

Woot!!

Pictures, man. Pictures!

Doh!

I meant to welcome you to SRP as well, Dave. Got a bit ahead of myself.

Sollingen was and remains to this day one of the primary locations for quality straight razor production. Do you have any pictures showing any of the markings?
