It seems that there are two types of Chinese inscriptions on Sheffield razors: Spurious Chinese and Cheesy Chinese. Here is a link with an in depth discussion: http://straightrazorpalace.com/razor...e-razor-3.html

A heavy 7/8+ wedge with no makers mark but I believe it's a Sheffield.

Sorry Wolfpack, I somehow posted on another thread but I know why. The wording is the same on two of them but a third one is different wording so I was wrong about that statement. Here they are:
You can see the one Max did in the SOTD here:

And here after he restored it:
Vintage Straight Razors : Joseph Elliot : 'Chinese Razor' : 6/8 : Near Wedge : Gray Translucent Horn
The wording on the one Max did & the one w/o the makers mark have the same wording but the W&B is different.Last edited by engine46; 11-07-2015 at 04:52 PM.
