    Default United States Razor Co.

    I like American steel so I took a $20.00 gamble. Has anyone information on the United States Razor Company? Goins' Encyclopedia lists the name but nothing else.

    Got kinda a grind like some Sheffield razors i.e. WB But if it's American steel from up in New York I bet it's a shaver. Tc

    There are no other markings on the blade. If they were a barber supply company then I'm guessing they did not make the razor. Still betting it's American made at this point since there is no country of origin.

    It seems to me to have a Torrey look about it.........

    I thought the same thing. They did some shoulderless grinds.
