Hey everybody,
I just bought this Ford & Medley from an antique store for $15 AUS and thought i might have a go at trying to restore it (first try at a restore) but i am curious about the wording below the logo. My girlfriend and i think it might have said "HAND FORGE".

as always thanks everybody

In these times (after 1891) many razors such as the solingen's were machine hammered in one time, with a mold.
Sheffield had a long tradition of "man made razors", that costed a bit more, but they pretend a better quality.
But it was the begining of the end for the sheffield products, because they could not stand the low prices of the reich industrie.
You and your girlfriend are probably correct. Hand forged is stamped on many a razors.

Hand Forged and HF are very common stamps...
