Thread: Who here on SRP owns the oldest razor?

just out of my own wonder id like to see some old razors and see how old there are. just how far back in history can a srp member take us? . i know some of the guys on here have some really nice old razors. i even have one that is about 1920 or so but we can do way better than that 1800's, 1700's, 1600's, 1500's who knows! but the posts will tell us,we just have to wait for them to roll in.

Certainly not the oldest by any stretch, but I have an heirloom razor waiting for my little boy to grow up to inherit, it is his great-great grandfather's razor. So my best guess puts it at around late 1800's.

P.S. It is shave ready thanks to Glen.

I've got a pretty old morely, but I just want to follow this one to see what shows up!!

My Greaves 1817ish

due to financial obligations to the state of arizona, restoration process was halted until I can buy scale material.....

My oldest, I believe, was made within 10 years either side of 1800.

Not the oldest but they date around 1850....both shave great too!

I'd be grateful if anyone could help me date this one: I figure it must be somewhere near 1800-1810, but can't say for sure.

Plenty old, this pair. The penning on the scales should date them way back in the 1800's

This 9/8 Masonic etched beast seems very old as to the tang/tail.

those are all really nice fellas. sharpton that is a real beast for sure. i have a weak spot for the wide blades. but i bet we have some show up that are even older. thanks to all that have posted so far. look forward to future post.
