    Default I've identified one of my grandfathers razors

    The name on the tang had been worn off, the only letters I can see are the letters n, followed by the word jay. I've found another razor online called John Jay. Do any of you know about this razor? i couldn't find anything on the database.

    Here's a John Jay. It's a good shaver.
