Thread: Red Devil wire razor

Unfortunately my Time Warner cable is down right now or I'd post some pics ofy Red Devils. Neither of them look like those knives pictured above.

I'm not sure it's so easy to separate those S&H Red Devils from the Engstrom ones though. There is a Luthe Hardware advertisement floating around that also shows the wire-made Red Devils too... and it goes on to emphasize the fact that they're made in Sweden. Given the timeframe it's likely that it was Engstrom who was making these and having them distributed through S&H and Luthe.

What I can tell you for sure is that both of my devils are nearly identical to each other and the Luthe advertisement (in that they're both hollow ground swayback smiling blades). One has the Engstrom stamp, one just says Made in Sweden.
...and I should also point out that the one with the Engstrom stamp also has its original scales that have the RanTan KaRus devil moniker-- which just happens to match the RanTan KaRus devil box which also sports the S&H Co. imprint.
