Moreover I found a similarity with another razor from the collection of a member of SRP (robertoreigosmendez) who lives in the province of Gallicia in Spain. It may be a track

An interesting punch: it is usually believed that the "GR crown" punch was used for King George IV (1820-30) and then in the XX ° for King George V.
However, these razors are typically dated between 1760 and 1780 for the shape of the blades (dip-at-toe) and characteristics of the handles (turtle and typical silver tips) in the range of luxury products. So, GR is also for George III.
The "LONDON" punch is used by Samuel Linley (son of William Linley cutler. Freedom granted in 1772) and by John Linley (son of William Linley cutler. Freedom granted in 1770) (Gales & Martin 1787 directory)

Thanked: 315Probably not 1700's, but looks pretty old. Maybe one of you guys has seen one of these before. I'm hoping to come across an old stubtail for a project. Even if it needed new scales. This one is just too pitted. I sanded some of the pitting out of the toe, but I'm not sure if it would even hone well since the pitting is so deep into the blade.
