Good find! The pressed horn scales look very nice and in good condition. That said according to Steve Shakleford guide on knifes and judge Lummus the I. Hall trademarks belongs to Jonathan Hall, Sheffield 1795-1830.
Jonathan Hall also had the trademark "Gratian" on earlier razors if it is indeed the same maker. A somewhat popular trademark because of George Washington razor. http://straightrazorpalace.com/razor...an-1900-a.html

Hi! Thank you for your replies and info.
The only mark on the tang are i. Hall and those on the scales.
I agree that i was meant to have one of them.
The one i bid on and lost sold for £87, the one i bought yesterday only cost £25 so was a bargain and a lucky great find.
So if i am correct in reading your post, it could have been made between 1795-1830 by J.Hall?
