    So I watched this close the other day, thought it was pretty interesting as I've never seen a vintage hybrid like this. The logo on the box/case seems to be copying Gillette. But I really don't see any marking indicating age or country of origin. The seller is in Israel, but I don't think that is a real solid indication of origin...

    Any one know anything about this razor?: https://www.ebay.com/itm/283771813727

    I think, but I could be wrong, Hercules is the company name. Every once in a while, an open comb razor pops up that says it's a Hercules razor, made in Portugal. The cardboard box it comes in also has the same shape as your pic of the plastic case. And actually, one is up for sale now on Ebay, pic below...........
