#CUT THROAT RAZOR: The predecessors of the modern straight razors include bronze razors, produced in Ancient Egypt during the New Kingdom from 1569 to 1081 BC. They had cutting edges with fixed handles. The 1st steel-edged cutthroat razors were manufactured in Sheffield England in the late 1680s, to early 1690s. After their introduction in 1680, the straight cutthroat razors became the principal method of shaving for over two hundred years and remained in use up until the mid-20th century
