Hi,

New here so hello!

On a recent trip to the UK my uncle gifted me with a straight razor that his uncle gave to him. I was wondering if anyone can help provide some background or any info on age etc? I've attached some photo's, but here's what I know.

Box says:
W .Weir, Hairdresser, Whiteinch

McPherson Brothers
Cutlery & Silversmiths
Glasgow

Razor says:
862 5/8 Osgar Reg D
Finest Sheffield Steel
Forged Real Hollow Ground & Made In Germany

Thanks in advance! I'm very curious about this blades age in particular, and what it's history might be.
Peter
