These are so cool Geaorge - thanks for sharing them. I remember both my dad and grandfather using straight razors on a regular basis. I bleed like a stuck pig using a Gillette Labs razor - just can't bring myself to make friends with one of these. I sure love having them though.
Just to the left of the pin/joint is stampeD "HOLLEY MFG CO" and below that a word that may be "Best." My photography skills are not the best, so it doesn't show well. I can't tell what the blade is, but I would guess steel. Dennis O. said:
No hallmarks visible (maybe on other side)? Is the blade silver as is typical, or steel? Or silver plated? Is the tang stamped? I like it!
