    I like the patina on it (and BTW there is also some oil on the blade I forgot to wipe off for the pic.)
    Well done reviving that one Greg

    Default Still showing it off

    Lord and Harvey -- 1820's? I've cleaned it up just enough to get the loose corrosion off. Shaves wicked.

    Don't get hung up on hanging hairs.

    I've looked a little here and here but can't find much. How would I determine approximate age and what not on my W&B and other razors I have.

    Dunno how to pick the exact age but the ones stamped "Sheffield" are 1890ish or earlier & the ones stamped "Sheffield England" are post 1890.
    Their production roughly spanned early 1800's to early 1900's
