    That's a beautiful example of an 8/8 Celebrated Hollow Ground Razor, pre-1891 since there is no, "England" stamp on the tang.

    But with the chip in the blade, and the smaller chips, and who knows if there are any hairline cracks, that's a significant restore job on the blade itself. In order to get rid of the big chip, the blade will lose a lot of geometry, and I'll leave it to the pro's on the site to assess what can be done with it.
