    Probably a long shot but is there any way to guesstimate the general time period this razor was manufactured? It is a wade and butcher 13/16 and the tail is a little shorter than some of my other razors. Don't know if tail size is relivent to time of manufacturing?Name:  20240510_111105.jpg

    Probably 1840s-1860s.
