    Default Razors made by Keene Cutlery?

    I picked one up at an antique store yesterday, and all the info I can find on Keene Cutlery has to do with strops and hones. Anyone have any history/info on era/country of origin/ etc? It would be most appreciated.

    It was sold to me in a Boker box, which might not mean anything except Boker makes the "Keen Cutter". Coincidence?

    I'll post pics soon. The razor has celluloid scales with inlaid scrolls, a spike point, and has "Clean Shave" etched on the blade.

    Perhaps this may be the information. If not someone here will come up with the correct information.
