    Default Razor ID old Wade & Butcher?

    Could anyone tell me what brand razor this is, it looks like a pre 1900's era razor but I'm not sure so any info is appreciated.Thanks in advance.

    The book by the Stewarts (Standard Guide to Razors) dates a similar one as circa 1820-1830 on page 64, and on page 89 they evaluate another that resembles yours more closely. They simply call it "G. B." and Anchor Brand. They say it's from Germany, but I don't know how much this is reliable.

    A nice find, congratulations!

    Grazie Mauri! It's an Anchor Brand like you said, a similar razor was posted in this thread http://straightrazorpalace.com/razor...-any-info.html
