Atlantic Cutlery Co?

Ever heard of them? Google doesn't give me much but it does have Germany on the tang along with Atlantic Cutlery Co. The blade is in good shape (assuming the metal itself isn't crap) and is actually some what sharp. I wouldn't shave with it but it isn't all beat up either. Some rust spots and two pits by the edge. They are small though and I think I can work right through them.

If nothing else I'll have something to practice honing on.

The scales are in good shape and look like plastic. Not sure though as the end is chipped up and looks porous or like it has a grain. The finished part is smooth as plastic though. Maybe it is cellulose or something.

The antique place I found this one at had a couple more but they looked like they had been ground damn near to the spine... unless that is an actual style. I asked if she minded if I came back with a camera and she said no. I'm going to go back and take some pics to see if there is anything you guys think is worth grabbing.

Hi Tomsd, I looked in a book I have. Consequently I could not find this company either, the closest I have is Atlantic Barbery Supply 1898-1914. I cannot say this is the same company.

I couldn't find a lot about Atlantic Cutlery Co. Only that it existed 1898-1914. Very similar, that Atlantic Barbery Supply and Atlantic Cutlery Co. - the same company.
Overall, some work and there will be a good razor.

This is what I found:

Yes, this is scan from Goins' Encyclopedia.

Thanks for the input guys. Going to have to clean it up and put it to use. :)
