Thread: Need help decipher the symbols on the razor

Looks like the former owner added those symbols .Does not look like the work of Joesph Rogers

The 2nd one says "England" on the blade so roughly post 1895

They had to start putting country of origin on razors roughly 1895, so if it only says Sheffield it's roughly pre 1895. I might be off on the year +/- 2 years

The celluloid scales on the second razor are not original to the blade. They kind of look like they may have come off of a French blade.
