That eagle sure gets to hold a lot of really nice razors!

Me too! Looks like the same grind as that Ryals stubtail you restored for Jerry.

I'd say it's about 75% likely to be Joseph & Maurice Rodgers, IE the famous ones. 1805-1815.

Refined Steel shows up a lot in that period, plus the style is straight outta Smith's Key.

It's a mystery why Rodgers didn't always use their mark, but I've seen razors that are definitely them (with the royal warrant), which don't use their mark.
