So I saw one of these razors for sale in the BST yesterday and thought I'd pull mine out for it's typical close and nice shave. The Bulldog was 1st advertised in 1914 and so that's what the date code charts that some have made show as when it was introduced. Mine is a 1912 date code (C133689) and the handle is attached to the head on these and appears all original as in the tube gives zero indication it was changed by anyone so it is a mystery to me. It could be that the light stamp is actually a G instead of a C but it certainly looks like a C. All I know is I got a great shave with it this morning and off to an early start and hopefully end of a work day. Take care everyone !
