    Default I.D. razor

    Hi all - 1st time user to this site. My name is Morgan. I am looking for any information on a straight razor I bought locally in an antique store. The only information on it is the name "Valentine" on the top line and "Perth" on the bottom line. The scales are ivory celluloid. There are no other markings on it. it is in good condition. Any information about it would be appreciated. If needed I can post a picture but you have all the relevant information. Thank you.

    Welcome to SRP.

    For help with the identification of the razor, we need to see what is stamped on both the front and back of the tang. A full pic of the opened razor would also help.

    Hello Morgan and welcome to SRP.

    In this case, as said, pictures are a must.
    Make sure you head on over to the Beginners section and introduce yourself.
    Enjoy your time here on the forum.

    Stamps are important but also the shape, grind, tail, etc... That is why a picture is needed.
    And welcome to SRP.
    It's just Sharpening, right?
