Categories:
Straight razor. John Primble India Steel Works. Imitation ivory handle with “The Primble Shield” in ribbon above raised figure of soldier with shield. “Primble India Steel Works” on shield; “Stands For All That Is Good In Cutlery” below shield in ribbon; “Goods Of Honor” around head pin. Plain round back. Obviously, this is a handle pattern that was limited to one manufacturer and therefore should not be found on a blade by a different maker. Very rare. This fancy celluloid handle pattern is a better example of #2 illustrated in the book “Celluloid Handle Guide for Straight Razor Collectors Reflecting on Fifty Years of Handle Designs (1870-1920)” By Robert A. Doyle. Great color.
