    Hi Guys
    I received this straight a few years ago and I've done some research without being able to figure out what year/decade this razor might be from. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    That is because it might actually be a Regrind, many factories offered this as a service after 1906

    Some of the clues are subtle, the tail, the grind, the Sheffield stamp
    None of these are definitive in itself, added up, they give a good guess, yours is a little confusing but probably post 1910

    Well, thank you...that's at least a bit more definitive than anything I was able to find out.

    You can trust Glen with his assessment of any razor, IMHO.

    I'd start with candy and flowers and hope that they don't find out that you're dating both of them.:scared007:
