    Default Albert Coward straight razor pair with guards

    I picked up this pair from England, manufactured probably close to the beginning of the 20th century, from Albert Coward in Sheffield. Apparently these were likely to have been display models as they came direct from the family. Here is some more information: Albert T H Coward - Practical Razor Manufacturer

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Sweet! In looking at the link provided, it looks as if an ancestor was about reproducing the old razors?

    The site was, to me, a bit unclear whether they were already producing them or trying to in the near future.

    Well, since they sold you those 2 beauties, I expect they may have found it is not so easy!
