Date Ranges of Manufacture
My husband received a straight razor after his dad passed away and it has been passed down through the generations. We are trying to determine the approximate age. Here is the description:
The Celebrated
Hollow Ground Razor
Circle B Arrow Cross brand
The tang has:
Manufactured By
Wade & Butcher
Sheffield
Circle B Arrow Cross brand
The handle appears to be Bakelite and is black. It's not bone; almost positive it's Bakelite or something much like that.
It's about 6 inches long closed and including exposed lever handle and around 10 inches fully open.
There is an inward curve on the outermost end of blade.
Any information on years this particular razor was manufactured would be most appreciated.
