Greaves sheaf works....??

i just got this off the bay,
the blade only has sheaf works on it....and the handle is marked as well,
i doesnt appear that any other marks have been worn off or down, no chips and cracks overall for 20$ iam happy if its the real mc coy ....
its just the lack of any other marking that has me concerned,
nothing appears reground and the handle doesnt look to be a transplant....just havent found any other resource backing up if this is how sheaf works came ?Attachment 236649Attachment 236650Attachment 236651
thanks for any input ..

Nice blade, nicely reground at some point in history to a thinner grind as is evidenced by the double-stabilizers. Likely was etched Greaves and Sons on the front blade's face before the regrind was performed.
Not too much wear after the regrind. Should be a great shaver.

Lots on Greaves here; Straight Razor Place - A brief history of William Greaves & Sons

Good catch for that price. It may have a small frown but hard to tell by the photos. Good luck and smooth shaves to you.
