Here's what I'm pretty sure is a Reynolds. I had her up in the general razor section asking for help IDind her, but I guess I won't know for sure till I clean her up.
Here is the post from the other thread, though I put it large images cause I seem to recall someone wanted razor porn...

The scales appear to be horn, but I'm not sure if they were meant to be that dark or if they just aged badly like the blade did.
She caught my eye because with the V.R. Sheffield stamping, and also because she was only $3. I figured it must be a decent blade, and it should be a good first resto as well. The lady at the store, as she was handing it to me, asked if I'd noticed that the scales were cracked and the blade was rusted. I said "Of course I did, but it's only $3!" I didn't ask her if she'd noticed the stamps on the tang or the round point on a wedge, because I didn't want to be rude and I'm quite sure she knew nothing about razors.
