Marsh Brothers & Co ROXO Razor
I just picked up this little gem. Razor is in mint condition, no hone marks. The razor was made in Sheffield, England by Marsh Brothers at their Pond Works facility at the beginning of the 1900's.
It has a 6/8+ round pointed, shoulderless blade with a nice deep blade etch and tang stamp and features bottom and top/side jimps for good grip and control. Factory grinding striations are evident and can be authenticated by simply looking at the blade etch, which was done after original grinding! This razor was made with a stiffer grind, quarter hollow. The scales appear to be ivory and are straight, shiny and no cracks with the front scale having a silver inlay of a shield. The silver collarless pins are perfectly tight with a black wedge.
