Oh. And razors? Lots with information on them like dates of manufacturing.
Like what to look for to be able to date the razor( pre 1700,18,19 century). Just lots of neat information
And something to make ya ill.
Check out the price for the W&B

My books, Straight Razor Collecting by Robert A. Doyle & my 3 editions of Standard Guide To Razors by Roy Ritchie & Ron Stewart show the same thing on how to date them as well according to the tang & so on. I think my Razor Anthology has it too. the dating is according to the tang on the blade & straightness or curvature of the scales.

There's also more..............
I do like your book though!

Starting to sound like a commercial offer on RONCO KNIVES[emoji23]

Mr. Robert Hardie was from, no lie, Shepherd's Bush. Fastest blade in Britain, but one day someone faster came along, it always happens. His name was Spiny Norman and he is on record as shaving 30 men in 30 seconds. The speed at which he shaved the grizzly volunteers was said to cause some onlookers to projectile vomit.

Just like the old west & fast draw gunmen. They made a name for themselves & had a reputation but there was always someone faster that would come along!

And here I thought Spiny Norman was a giant hedgehog that followed Dinsdale Piranha around.
