    Default Can anyone identify the maker's name?

    At first I thought it might say "Tillotson" but other razors of theirs doesn't use this 'fancy' font and quite honestly it kinda looks like "Tillatain", "Tillntain"...something..

    Anyone got the answer?

    I can't really read the imprint too well, but could it be Tillotson & company Columbia Place Sheffield

    That was my initial guess but not sure if I am 'forcing' myself to make it look like that

    It does look like a Tillotson, but I think it is before Columbia place.

    Interesting - that would make it earlier than 1850.

    It appears to be Tillotson to me as well. I like it, a shoulderless blade but it looks like someone touched it up with a grinder, belt sander etc.
