If I can count properly (a dubious claim on the best of days, I know), then there were ninety-nine (99) craftsman who classified themselves speciffically as Razor manufacturers.
This list might not include other cutlers or various types of smiths/crafters who could have made them as a sideline, individual orders/personal favours, or possibly just out of personal interest etc.
