My mom was able to find an old straight razor that she swears was her grandfathers. There's now brand name, just "Extra Hollow Ground Sheffield". Can anyone tell me anything about this? (hope the pics help, I'm a horrible photographer)
There were a number of Sheffield razor makers and most of them were great. The IXL could be a Wostenholm, or a number of other makers. Better pictures of each side of the tang would help.
Yeah. i'll try to get better pics but my camera is garbage. the tang doesnt say "IXL" the only markings anywhere on the razor say "Extra Hollow Ground Sheffield".
