    Stainless Steel blades bear that info on the tang, usually as 'rustless', 'anti-rust', 'inoxydable', 'inox' and so on.

    Yours has none of these marks, therefor it is plain old carbon steel.

    Still a fine piece, though, and well worth owning.

    Regards

    OTT I know, but you are going to have to do something about that photo of yours, Wullie - it's beginning to freak me out a bit.

    Why can't you have something nice and cutesie like 10pups has?

    Just saying...

    Regards,
    Neil

    If you are lucky enough you may come across a straight razor by George Ibberson & Co Sheffield marked "Firth Stainless". Probably one of the first stainless steel straight razors.

    Thanks for everyones input . A newbie needs the village to stay on track. As you all can tell I was a little perplexed and worried. In my limited experience this W/B is one of the best condition ones i have seen.

    I assumed 10pups avatar to one of two things:

    1) "Who just p00ped on the rug? This guy."

    2) Dap. POUND IT!
