It cannot be stated as fact, but at a certain point, and 1000's of razors crossing ones hands and stones there comes a time that one finally says I am pretty darn sure I am right

As Dave pointed out above and I said in my first post, the proportions are wrong, besides the fact that they have different pins top and bottom, and this era of razor is well past the point of production scales being put on at the factory/shop..

Basically as they say in court "A preponderance of doubt is heavily weighed to the Non-Original side" ..

But yer right Carl it is not a 100% fact but I would feel comfortable at the above 99% call
