I agree - and I don't know anything about the company either but that doesn't mean anything. It was obviously a high end razor in the mid 19th century. Definately not a cheap razor back then.

I missed that. That means it was part of a big money seven day set.

IMHO I dont think this was part of a seven day set.
Most 7 day sets have MONDAY, TUESDAY,..ETC on the spine
I think this was part of a cased pair. So its twin is out there somewhere
happy hunting .
