Some very nice razors there
Not a Beauty but my thinnest and most felxibel Razor came yesterday, a nameless british Razor from around 1900 i guess.

do you mean on the shank stamps? To bring out makers markings?
anyone have suggestions on getting scratches out on blade engravings without damage?
Well, its allways like a look into a dark room trying to date a Razor without stamps or other marks that might give an impression of the production date.
The old styled scales with lead space and the brass pins, together with the rounded tang and the "flowing" passage from the tang to the blade make me
guess that its either older than younger as i have seen these design mostly on razors around 1900. But thats only what i guess, in the end i dont know it.
Two superb Sheffield blades, on the way from a fine member here, very much looking forward to these two.

And this, John Creswick, The Celebrated Hollow Ground Razor, For Barbers Use
Wonder where this blade was inspired from?:idea:
And did the same artisans make this one right before or after a W&B, Rodgers or a Wostenholm!?! :hmmm:
