Congrats.
Beautiful and quality razors, and knives. Highly recommended.
And my best regards to Dean Elliott Case.

I collect them myself, they are serious NY steel
As Manah already pointed out one of the Case family of cutlery out of Little Valley NY.
These razors can take on some of the sharpest edges I can find on razors, and they can hold them without getting harsh...

Nice snag is there a name on it anywhere???

Perhaps "Blue Steel" or "Top Notch"
