    Default Wilder Sheffield Razor

    It says Wilder on one side and Sheffield on the other, it's 6/8 and looks to be a 1/2 hollow. I picked it up for $2, cleaned and honed and it shaves great.
    Does anyone know anything about these?

    I don't have a working camera at the moment so I can't include a picture.

    Hi,

    About a year late - sorry. I picked one of these up on the bay. It was pretty rough. I cleaned it up and really struggled to get an edge on it. I took it to the meet in Denver where Glen helped me get rid of a "hook" on the heal. After that, I used what I learned from Glen to get the bevel set correctly and got a great edge on it. Though all that, I managed to break one of of the scales, but replaced the scales with NOS I found on line. It has turned into an awesome shaver and is one of my favorite 2 or 3.
