Anyhow - those Bengall cast steel razors normally take a superb edge and are great shavers!

Celluloid handles became popular after 1870, and the type of this razor was also close to 1870~1880. The above is my guess, but I can confirm that it is a razor in the late 19th century. The edge of Wedge can reach HHT-5 and smooth shaving feeling.

I like the BENGALL produced in each period.
