There's a George Webster razor manufacturer in a 1841 Sheffield directory and also 1846 both at 33 Howard street Sheffield.
Here's an old view of Howard street nearby to 33, the big building at the top with clock tower is Walker & Halls cutlery factory.
Regards Brian

Thanks for the positive feedback fellas! And thanks, Brian, for the great info and picture - it sheds light and perspective on the whole project. This is the only one I've come across by this maker. Great steel as you would expect out of Sheffield. It delivered a top notch shave this morning, very impressed.

Another Sheffield beauty, Garrison! Your mirrored tang and outlines contrasting with the satin blade face is just a stunning aesthetic!
