    Thanks yall! I love the set! I did a little research and an article said that the razors might be Swedish steel that was sold in new york but thats all I could find. I think they can be from the 1890s to the 1920s

    Congrats about the law school and the 7 day set.
    Soame information about you set STACY. London made table cutlery, pen/pocket and sportsmen's knives, scissors, shear, razor, corkscrews and skates. Established 1780. 23 Newgate Street. 1875-1880. The 1875 directory records the name as STACEY, thereafter it is STACY. Various Newgate street addresses listed. Stacy London Limited 1915-1935.


    Sheffield made, but probably from Swedish steel like many at that time. Like the picture below showing Sheffield.

    I wonder if my razors are earlier than those. Those are nice! I think those are ivory scales, mine are bone.. wish they were ivory though
