    Default Newer W.R. Case. Maker?

    I came across a W.R. Case Razor with literature dating 1999. The box says Solingen-made. Tang says stainless and W.R. Case, but that's it. I would guess Dovo-made. The collars look Dovo as well.
    Anyone Know?

    I thought about that. Seems Parker owned Case until about 1990. The razor is not dated, but the literature with it says 1999.

    Case had them made after the Zippo purchase in 1993. Parker owned and tried to ruin Case from 1988-1991. The razors came in Case Boxes, The one I am looking at right now is Chestnut Bone and is item 20979, RAZ 415715SS. The box has the standard Case paper work and invit(2001) to join Case collectors club. It has taken some time for Case to try to recover from the Parker years. I think retail was about $145.00 or so.
