A beautiful razor from 1920 featuring open comb guard and balanced handle. Gorgeous design and an incredible piece of history. A thick handle allows for maximum hold and grippage, a true masterpiece! Many wet-shavers love this Bulldog / Barber Pole handle design because of its neat look and feel.
Great condition for almost being 100 years old! Teeth are mostly straight, and the handle shows one minor crack that was likely there since its manufacturing day. This issue isn't anything to worry about and does not effect the functionality or the shave.
