Hi all,

I'm new around here. I recently acquired an old razor that evidently belonged to my great-great-grandfather, and was possibly brought to Canada with him from Scotland.

The only indication of a maker is "Claughton Bros, Leeds" on the tang. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find much info about this maker on the web, so I was hoping someone around here might be able to point me in the right direction.

Here are some photos. The blade appears to be pretty good for its age. I'm not sure what the scales are made of (bone?), but as you can see they are broken, and I will probably make a new set for it out of hardwood at some point.

Thanks!
