    I've been looking for an old document I remembered from Judge Lummus ("Old Sheffield Razors" by Lummus. Antiques, December 1922), and he talked about it in the second paragraph of the first picture as "straightbacks", and the "T" of the second picture is one of those.





    I still don't see the point about making razors this way, but I'm beginning to believe it a lil more.

    Edit : Well.. I just noticed you talk about Lummus in your Birmingham thread..
