That is the second old Sheffield I've seen in the last two days that looks to have been "double-ground" or partially hollow-ground. Maybe I'm just not seeing the picture right, but it's interesting. I wonder if it might have been re-ground. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Many Cutler's way back when believed that they would prolonged the life of the razor by hollow grinding and made a few bucks doing it!

Hope the pictures say enough, couldn't it be that there would be another angle or a little hollow grinding at the smaller side, so that you can have that curve at the edge?Attachment 112729 Attachment 112730

Thanks for the input, but I don't know, it is not the identical trademark, but it's a start!
