    Question BULLDOG?

    I recently picked up an old straight razor from an antique store, a real project razor that would take some elbow grease to get back to glory. I am not familiar with the brand "BULLDOG" and haven't found much in my research. If you know anything, I'd love to hear it.

    Photos:


    The razor in question


    152 BULLDOG FULLY WARRANTED


    Some pretty heavy pitting


    SILVERSTEEL WARRANTED


    It's everywhere!


    Some discoloration in the wedge.


    Found this ripped piece of paper wadded up in the sleeve - no clues here

    Can anyone here give me some insight on this? I'm at a loss. Thanks for any info.

    Unfortunately the only bulldogs I've seen were at Yale and at Lynn's house.

    After cleaning up the razor, you may have to do some extensive bevel setting in order to get to good steel.

    (I tried to upload a photo of one of Lynn's dogs but it failed to load.)

    Dog names can be long...

    "Sir Reggie Paddington Brown" has a nice ring to it.
