Conrad Razors

The "Conrad Razor Blade Co." apparently made a lot of razors although strangely enough it's not a very well known name.

Conrad razors were also known by an even more obscure company name: "Prybrands Inc.", of Long Island, New York.

I understand that Conrad/Prybrand made two of the well known (and well regarded) "Barbasol" razors, as well as the "Clix", "Good Humor" and "Hallmark". Some have speculated that Conrad also made razors branded as "Permedge", "Cooper" and "Schaeffer". I'm speculating myself (in the "Unknown Razors" section) that perhaps Conrad also made the razor I describe there as being either "Klenzo" or perhaps "Royal Crown".

In any event, here's a rare and "well-made feeling" razor actually sold under the name "Conrad" (at least on the case, the razor itself has no branding).

I also include, in a following post, a photo of some other razors that are recognized as either being made by Conrad/Prybrand (2 "Barbasols" and a "Clix"), or are speculated to be made by them (being a "Permedge" and my "Klenzo/Royal Crown").

And here's the branded Conrad along with a Barbasol Floating Head, a Barbasol Non-Floating Head with Bakelite handle, a Clix, a Permedge and an unknown razor I'm calling "Klenzo" or "Royal Crown". All "Conrads"?
