Tom was right about showing you the link. There is some good info there.
I found several Bingham's in one of my references & it says James Bingham & Co. He was son of Samuel Bingham, a razor smith, & he became a razor maker by he late 1820's upon briefly being partnered with Jonathan Crookes. The trademark, "Congruent" was used on his razor's but by 1845 he backed off from business. Later years, he was manager of George Wostenholm & Son. He died in 1876 at the age of 73 & his "Congruent" mark continued to be used by Wostenholm.

I understand. It should be a nice razor since it is a Sheffield razor.
