Garanti 350 Pilot-Bellay 8/8 Information?
Need some help with this razor.
This is from the lot of five I just received that I purchased to practice honing on.
This blade is in good condition, it's an 8/8 Spanish point, Garanti 350, Pilot-Bellay. I think it's French, but have no info on it.
Anyone have any ideas about this razor?
Some history/information, as always, is much appreciated.

Nice find Phrank! Tournai is a city in Belgium. In the Industry, Almanach of Commerce, Pilot-Bellay is listed under cutlers (couteliers) the edition is from 1854.
Personally i would practice on something else, and when you figure it out, work this razor up and use it, should be a very good shaver.Phrank and silverloaf like this.
