    Hey There!

    So I have done some research for you and there are a lot of razor makers with the surname in/around Sheffield England. Hull is right near (50 miles away) Sheffield. I wouldn't wonder that this razor was made in around 1820-1850 before putting the country of manufacture was mandatory, hence the place name Hull. The Wilson's I have found (in Goin's) operated from around 1800 - 1953 so this hypothesis could be correct. No dead certs though sorry just a strong inkling. It does look like a Sheffield razor too!

    From an admirers point of view those are some gorgeous scales, and the razor looks mighty fine, AND if I were you I would treasure every shave!!

    Thanks

    Carl - SRH
