I have one just like the top razor second set of pics. When I get home I'll share, different maker though. Sweet finds!

The Holmes interests me. I found a directory for Derby from the 1840s that lists both a George and Henry Holmes as Cutlers and Ironmongers, but that razor looks a bit earlier than that and it's hard to say.

Unfortunately the edge is really rotten and corroded

The Fine India Steel razor has been reground; it may have had a maker etched or stamped into the face of the blade. Originally Posted by JOB15
