Gift from my parents

My parents gave me a pretty cool present earlier this afternoon, and I thought I'd do some show-and-tell. The box is leather, and the label on the inside of the lid says, "Daniel Peres Barrel Brand," with a picture of a barrel. One of the three razors is stamped as a being made my Worcester Razor Co in Worcester, MO. The other two razors aren't stamped anywhere, but I've looked them over and they're identical to the one with the stamp. You can see that the spines of the razors has been scalloped a little, and I'm fairly certain that it's the way they came. All three razors have a slight smile, and I'm afraid of trying to hone them since I just started honing and I don't want to ruin it. I definitely want to use them at some point though, so I may get in touch with Glen about getting them cleaned up.

The only info I could find about the Worcester Razor Co was that they operated from 1900 to 1930. Past that, details have proven impossible to find. If anyone knows anything, I'd love to hear about it. Links to hi-res versions of the pics are below.
