Thanked: 04 for the price of one
Picked these up at a small antique shop while back home in Illinois for the holiday weekend. Got em all for a measly $20. I stopped by Dad's barber shop for a haircut but he didnt have any more razors to part with.
My favorite is the green covered tang Penn Cutlery Tidioute, PA. The color really pops in the right light. One is only marked "Paris", so not much help there. The Wade and Butcher has some very light etching on the blade that I can't make out and the horn scales are pretty tired.
I can't tell if the Joseph Rodgers and Sons has ivory scales or just bone. I havent seen enough ivory up close I guess.

Nice score! From the picture it looks like the JR is bone. I think I see some dark lines where the vessels in the bone get dirty, which doesn't happen in ivory.
