Hello,
It would be much appreciated if I could get some help from you guys. I recently purchased a straight razor from an antique store and would like to find more information on it. On the blade it says: "Wostenholm's Best Full Hollow Ground". On the back side of shank it says: "George Wostenholm & Son Original and True (picture of a pipe) Razor Sheffield, England. On the front of the shank it has a picture of a pipe. The razor is in great condition.
The questions I have are: Does anyone know how old the razor might be, and how collectable Wostenholm Pipe razors are? What do you think this is worth? Any information would be much appreciated.
