GENEVA CUTLERY CO - GENEVA, N.Y. USA - HONOR - 5/8 - HALF HOLLOW
This is a vintage US brand and steel, Geneva Cutlery Co, Geneva, N.Y. USA. razor in excellent, I would say immaculate condition.
This razor has hardly seen much use, if any.
The Geneva Cutlery Co has been custom fitted with G10 Hunter Orange scales, tapered with a G10 Jade Ghost.
The blade is extremely shiny, clean with no rust, cracks, chips, pits or disturbing stains.
The blade measures just over 5/8, 1/2 hollow, straight end.
It's a loose grind 1/2 hollow so it feels more like a full hollow but with more backbone.
Blade centers nicely and razor sits snug between the scales.
Total weight: 1.8 oz
Total cutting edge: 2.50"
Brass and Silver nickel hardware
On the front shank it says: 'Honor'
