HUN-GROUND RAZORS.
A -correspondent, writing to "The Times," says:— "I lately bought seven razors in a neat shagreen case for four guineas. 1 was told that it was the last of the pre-war stock, and that at the price it was more nearly a presentation than an ordinary commercial transaction. Be that as it may, they are certainly the best razors I have ever used. On one side of the hilt is tho name and address of the vendor; on the other are these words: 'Finest Sheffield steel forged and real hollow-ground in Germany.' "I am told that before the war the best Sheffield razors were sent to Germany to be liollow-ground, and then returned to Sheffield. If our disabled soldiers can bo taught to polish diamonds, can they not learn the art of j hollow-grounding a razor ? It would bo interesting to hear what Sheffield I and Roeliampton have to say to this. "F."
