I really like the muted tones on the scales Tom. Its real pleasing to the eye. Usually with those blown out yellow scales you never really can see all the sudtle detail in the patterns of the scales. But with the darker shades and the highlights where you rubbed a bit on the high spots really brings out the richness of the shapes.
Very Cool.

How neat! I also have a double concave Cattaraugus razor with celluloid handles and tang. The spine on mine reads "Pat. Feb. 18, 1902". Very unique razors. I just honed it, stropped it, and ready to use it tonight!

[QUOTE=sharptonn;1036597] A patent date on back of the tang reads Oct. 18 1902. (George Korn Patent?)
A George Korn Patent on a Cattaraugus razor how can that be?
Actually George Korn and J.B.F. Champlin(Cattaraugus founder) were good friends and business partners, and actually factory neighbours. After the tariff, Korn business of importing cutlery was not so hot so he formed the George Korn Razor Company, right next door to Cattaraugus Cutlery!

Interesting, Martin! I DID pose that as a question, which you have answered! I have often thought George made razors with many other names on them, including Case.

I rest my case.
