    Default Help with an ID

    Found this set online, and am kind of interested in the bottom blade. I know the edge is torn up and may be beyond repair, but I dont know what it is. Can Anybody ID this thing. Thanks Guys.

    I was thinking I could butter knife it maybe. But I like that spine. The site that has it listed has no manufacturers name on it, and it doesnt look familiar.

    That ring looks familure to me. I think it had something in it but im coming up blank right now. A lot of makers did that spine so it would be hard to say by that.
    It's just Sharpening, right?

    Don't Know the maker but I always liked those ones with a sculpted spine. Shame but you would probably lose all that engraving on the blade with that big stain. I think you could increase the smile and maybe even save that Spanish point.

    Looks to me like Osgood Bray & co. This pic from one of my first attempts at getting an older razor back into usable shape when I had very little experience..Perhaps I should dig it out and give it another go... I don't have much experience now mind you, but more than I did 18 months ago! Best of luck!
