Forgo Mud !
I'm going to visit my in-laws in Norway. The town I'm going to (Tonsberg) has many fine "junk" shops, very often selling things for low prices that - in the US or UK - would be sold in antique shops for considerably more. It is a town with a lot of history (It's Norway's oldest)
A lot of Norwegian history is tied up with Sweden, and a lot of Swedish products - of all "levels", from craftsman to mass produced - have always been sold in Norway, and my thinking is "Swedish steel, Swedish straight razor makers", tho' these shops very often have many fine German and Dutch antiques as well.
Can anyone suggest any names to look out for?
(mods, would this be better in the straight section?)
