Manhattan Cutlery
I picked this razor up at a resale shop for 12 bucks for my next project .Its marked Manhattan cutlery made in Sheffield and is a full wedge.Does anyone have an idea when this razor may have been made?
As always thank you for your help

I would say mid 1800's to 1890's. Nice find!

That sounds about right. I shaved with one this morning. Honed by Lynn and holds a nice edge. I think you'll like it.

Trademark Manhattan Cutlery Co. was used by H.Boker & Co, Solingen since 1868 till 1906.

Why can't I ever find something that nice at an antique shop? Great score! I hope it shaves well.

So then if it is a Sheffield then it is pre 1868. Sweet!

Sorry, but you're wrong.
Manhattan Cutlery Co. and Manhattan Cutlery Co., Sheffield are H.Boker trademarks, 1868-1906.Alex Ts.
