The Straight Razor Acquisition Thread

Another unknown razor the ''STAND'' made in France.
On the blade when held up to the light is legible ''Extra hollow grind'' very hard and high quality steel.

 

I found this it has strange scales and strange grind. Scales in bachelite marble effect and I think it`s was regrind.
From the web
Brookes & Crookes, Sheffield.
In 1858, John Brookes was joined by Thomas Crookes and they acquired a warehouse, workshops, engine-house, and grinding wheel behind a nouse at No.58 St. Philip's Road. The factory, Atlantic Works, was previously the address of Thomas Wigfall. In 1859, Brookes & Crookes appeared in Melville's Commercial Directory of Sheffield as manufacturers of spring knives and dressing case instruments. John Brookes died on 14 February 1865, aged only 39. Thomas Crookes took over the business. He had little direct experience of the cutlery trade and left the running of the works to his manager, William Westby. He had become a partner in the firm after the death of Brookes in 1865.
Brookes & Crookes was never amongst the largest cutlery factories in Sheffield - in the late 19th century, the number of hands was not much more than 150 - but what Brookes & Crookes lacked in size, it made up for in quality, with its "Bell" trademark soon becoming a badge of excellence.
The last family chairman and director, Herbert Crookes, died in February 1954. In 1957, Atlantic Works was closed.
But the firm was formally liquidated in 1964.

 

Thiers Issard Le Grelot for Sanelli Premana one of the most important Italian cutlery manufacturers since 1864
Rare and extrafine Razor

 

I see Le Grelot logo,
but why do you think it is also Thiers Issard?

 

I always thought that Le Grelot and Thiers Issard were always together instead thanks to your comment I discovered that Le Grelot produced even before the acquisition. Now I don't know the exact dating of the razor so I'm in doubt.

 

I like Le Grelot from before the time that they were acquired by Thiers Issard
and I also like
Thiers Issard from before the time that Thiers Issard acquired Le Grelot.

 

I don't think the scales are original.
It says guaranteed hardened and is manually sharpened

 

That's a nice looking razor.
In looking at past threads here and other sites, these could be original scales. Kabrand seemed to put out razors with plain to very decorative scales. From what I have seen.

 

Many thx!
The doubt came to me because the brand is often present on the handle too. The scales are certainly from the same era as the razor.
