    Roberto, I've never heard of the brand. Can you post a photo ? Any vintage razor in excellent or better condition is fine if it is shave ready.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    There was a William Richardson, cutler, residing in Edinburgh around 1830 - could that be the person? Never heard of 'Edimburg' before, though there is an Edinburg in the US.

    Whatever, never tried that particular razor, I'm afraid.

    Regards,
    Neil

    Greetings! I do not know much about Richardson razors, but in case there will be some interest in procuring another reasonably priced German razor (Hudsor) see the link below:
    https://www.etsy.com/listing/1890569...w_type=gallery

    I just purchased four of them and must say that the razors that I received are of a very good quality.

    Best!

    It looks like a fantastic razor to me! The scales appear to be ivory which would signify a high quality razor. I think that would be a great razor to own and use.
