    Nesbitt. Possibly made by George Ibberson.. Just an un-researched guess.

    Interesting bunch of razors. I'd go along with your guess that the Nesbitt's Celebrated Hollow Ground razor is made by George Ibberson. It is stamped with a violin which I believe is the trademark of George Ibberson. Possibly it was a contract piece for Nesbitt?

    I think others used a violin although I could be wrong on that but the circular writing on the face I've seen before on Ibberson's and it has that Ibberson's style to it.
    George Ibberson Razors are definitely of a very high quality imo.

    Hoppe and Henckels had a business relationship for a while. I have a Henckels Hoppe 14 also as well as one only marked Hoppe.

    The circular writing on the two Ibberson stainless steel razors I have is on the other side of the blade. It says "Made in Sheffield England" with England through the middle.

    That Meeson is one wicked version compared to the other tapered blades we normally see. But yea I kinda like it as well.
