    Default Cutlers to Her Majesty.

    For about seven years I tried to find razor with the stamp "Cutlers to Her Majesty". Here're some old threads:

    .......
    I've seen different knives and razor boxes with such stamp, but never on the razor blade. And here it is - Harrison Brothers & Howson, Sheffield.





    This razor has this stamp:

    As a history buff, this fascinates me. Is this going in your personal collection, Manah?

    Traded this one off a while back. Was unaware that you were hunting for a "her" majesty razor.


    Yours is a LOT less used than this one was. Yours is beautiful.

    Hi, I recently came across a V(crown)R Cutler's to "her" majesty (star)(cross) one piece with a wooden handle. Roughly 6 inch rounded blade. I'm just curious to know the history as I cannot pin point with the info I can find. Anything is appreciated.
    Thanks.

    It is against forum rules to give valuations.

    It is also against the rules to discuss sales on the forums. Here is a link to the rules:
