    Now this one looks like it has a pretty stubby tail to me... the original post razor is somewhere in between, but absolutely shorter than the later tangs.

    Good luck on the honing... should be a fun one though

    According Robert A.Doyle, such razors with stamp "Old English" on the top of the wedge blade were made in Sheffield, about 1825-1830.
