Description

This lot features an antique 10″ razor by HMC Cutlery Co., with unique detailing that includes the “New Bedford, Mass” stamp on the metal below the blade and a whale design on the handle. The razor is also marked “Handmade” on the “pull” (or nail nick), where it would have been gripped to open, highlighting the artisan craftsmanship behind this piece.

The intricate whale design pays homage to New Bedford’s maritime history, making this razor not only a functional tool but also a collector’s item steeped in historical significance. Its 10″ blade provides excellent balance and sharpness, further enhancing its appeal to collectors of vintage cutlery or nautical-themed memorabilia.
