Yep Neil, I agree. Out of all my references I have 2 books by Jim Sargent called Knives & Razors, 2 different editions & they are my least go to books for information. I rely on my Tweedales & my Goins Encyclopedia first, The Razor Anthology, Straight Razor Collecting, by Robert A. Doyle & 3 editions of the Standard Guide To Straight Razors by Roy Ritchie & Ron Stewart. I could use more but one day I will get some others. I also have info printed out by Henry T. Lummus.

As interesting as would be to know the original maker's intention, I just think they look cool.
Any theories I had about its' origin would be a would no more than a guess.
If I get a chance to talk to Jim Sargent again, I'll may ask him about his info on the barber's notch. I'm not sure how much of a SR aficionado he is, but if you are interested in W.R. CASE or other antique pocket knives he is EXTREMELY knowledgeable.Neil Miller and engine46 like this.
