    Default pyramid on shoulder ?

    Anyone have a clue what brand straight razor has like a two sided pyramid with Geneva N.Y.USA. on shoulder, face side, bottom row. That is all that can be made out on bottom row, top row could possibly end in crp, the rest of it is pitted and won't clean up. I have seen that pyramid symbol on a razor before but can't remember brand name, any clues ???

    As far as I know, the early Genevas were dated inside the pyramid. A 7 being 1907 and a 23 being 1923. Thats as far as I know, of course!
