Default Merkur logo?

I have a vintage DE that I cleaned up yesterday, and I'm wondering if it's a Merkur. It has a longish rubberized handle, a head with several angles on it instead of one smooth dome, and a logo on the underside that looks like it could be an eagle with an M in it.

Does that logo sound familiar to anyone?

It also has the name Eversharp on the underside.

Maybe I can post photos later if necessary.

Thanks,
Josh

A little further research reveals that Eversharp is actually a brand name; I had assumed it was a model name. I think it was either made by or bought out by Schick. Cool.
