I seem to remember some with a hot stamp of "Master Barber", but with Genco, anything goes it would seem!
Someone will be along with an example or some old advertising!
That one with Bradford on it.....I think that means after the Case buyout. I have always heard that, but interestingly, I found some info which states that Ecko bougut Geneva in the 30's.http://www.fundinguniverse.com/compa...p-inc-history/
Notta nothing perhaps this thread: http://straightrazorpalace.com/razor...achusetts.htmlQuote:

On Geneva Cutlery. I would like to document the entire and real story. The antlers, the pyramids, the numbers in some of the pyramids, the original owners and subsequent ones. Genco. What and when did this take place? What is the true, accurate story of the Case aquisition? I have heard the Bradford ones were Case-made. What of the link I posted above which states Geneva Cutlery was aquired by Ecko in the 30's? I am going to get all of this thread into the Wiki, somehow. The story of Geneva Cutlery is bound to be important!
Any help would be appreciated!

At least I assume the larger models would've had the same scales...
Yes, for certain, the two intersect. Case is a broad subject in it'self. I am thinking to start a Case thread. This one started as American Knife and continues to evolve.
Should we just leave it alone and go thru Geneva and the the myriad of Case? Other American makes?
Looking at the views and posts on this thread, it might be better to leave it right here! Whatsay, anyone?
