I believe they were associated with the WR Case family by marriage or some sort of blood relation. They made good stuff and it will probably make a dandy shaver and it is a good looker.

We now only have undercover moderators. Sneaky bastages those ones!!

If I'm not mistaken, Case still makes a line of pocket knives branded with the Cattaraugus name.

Theseus, I don't know, maybe so. I used to have a Case knife growing up - a folding hunter, like a 'Buck' knife. It was a work-horse, and it kept a mean edge. So, they definitely made some quality cutlery in their time. And, I think they still do.
