Thanked: 884Can't argue that, but the bulk of straight razor manufacture had pretty much died off by the 1930's. Wostenholm continued to make knives and cutlery until the 70's.
I own one Wostenholm's "end of days" knives. It's unused with all the paperwork. I've seen better examples of knives coming from China. In other words, they were just a faint shadow of their former prowess and glory.
I'm just basing my statement on the number of razors that I generally remember seeing for sale on the bay.
( My rememberer ain't that great these days either )Member Tonkin Gulf Yacht Club, participant SE Asia War Games 1972-1973. The oath I swore has no statute of limitation.
