    "The corporate mark was a Cannon and the word 'Defiance'."

    Has anyone ever seen one of these Razors? I have seen the John Pitts Razors occasionally, but what about a Pitts Brothers/Defiance razor?

    It has been a struggle to figure out this razor but an interesting one.

    Charles Pitts.
    The problem was that Abram Brooksbank used the cannon/Defiance logo (After). The Pitts cannon is a tad different and the initials C.P made things more confusing.
    Another issue is that the scales have a James Tidmarsh Warranted escutcheon plate.

    I removed or lessened a lot of pitting . Now i need to make some scales.
