    I like old scrimshaw, and historical razors !

    So, when razors have names on them, i think they become "historical razors"

    This pair of Mappins are.......AAArrrgggg..great treasure !!

    But...if the boat does San Francisco to Sydney...why these razors are in London....?

    because sailors traveled the world working ship to ship.... and eventually they return to home..... my money says the original owner was from london.... it has his name on it... with an approximate date.... i am sure a genealogy could be pulled up easy...
