Kinfolks razor
I recently purchased a Kinfolks razor off the B/S/T board here, and I am trying to find out some history on it. I have found out that Kinfolks name has been reincorporated by the Dean Elliot Case to try to preserve some of the history.
So far I have found out:
From Kinfolks Website(www.kinfolksinc.com)
Kinfolks was/is a part of the Case family from @ 1926-1957
Sold in 1957 to Robeson Cutlery (still part of the Case family)
The Tang stamp on the back is Kinfolks Incorporated
From Dean Elliot Case
"the Inc instead of the USA makes this an older razor, pre 1939 or so"
The front scale and tang are marked KC W
If anyone has any other info It would be greatly appreciated
