Razor ID/ Opinions/ help! Sansom and sons
Hey all!
Looking for any info on this razor! I just picked up the Sansom and sons so it is dull as a doorknob.
From what I can see it says:
V *crown* R
Sansom and sons
cutlers to her majesty
here are some pics:

All I can find is Sheffield 1821 in business. That V R and crown stand for "Victoria's Reign".

my additional question would be is it bad for the value of the razor to remove the rust and hone it up to shave ready? sorry if that has been answered I am quite new here. Also got this for 30$ CAD! score

IMO cleaning and honeing it will not lessen the value. It's a big blade and I think you did well price wise.

You should be able to get a deep clean and honed to shave ready and be able to shave with it for the rest of your life. It's a nice catch to say the least. Where are you?
It's not what you know, it's who you take fishing!
