    Default Two new old razors need info please

    Hi and thanks for reading
    I have two Sheffield razors, bought from a lady from Sheffield, so they didn't travel very far as i only live 17 miles away.
    To the point. I looked through the database but couldn't find the two names i was looking for.

    The first one reads - John C C.ockhill's Celebrated Razor Sheffield with the yellow scales,lead wedge and reads Hollow Ground, quite clearly, on the blade really nice steel too and still quite sharp !

    The second one reads - J Blackwell & Son 328 Savile St Sheffield black scales, lead wedge and reads Diamond Edge on the blade, very faintly. I think that someone might have flattened one side down as the grind looks different on one side compared to the other. Although i could be wrong

    So does anyone have any idea when these were made I'd really like to know

    thanks

    ian
