Re: CHALLENGE CUTLERY CO. razor info HELP
Hey buggie, nice razor. Check the books to find date of manufacture. i dont know much about Challange cutlery. Nice looking razor. Value depends on who your trying to sell to, knife collectors would probably just put it up to admire. Razor collectors-users would probably want it shave ready or usable condition. So value can be all over the place. What you got in mind?
Sometimes nothing can be a real cool hand.

Re: CHALLENGE CUTLERY CO. razor info HELP
Are you sure it is stainless and not nickel silver? I have a medical kit that has a nickel silver handled razor in it.Allows the razor to be sterilized in an autoclave without damaging the handles.

That Geneva Cutlery box is probably worth something to a Case collector as Genco was purchased by Case in the mid 1930's

Re: CHALLENGE CUTLERY CO. razor info HELP
Challenge Cutlery Co. is post 1899 to when they went under in '27-'28.
1891-1899 was Challenge Razor Works.
That's a nice one.
As a rule, on ebay Challenge doesn't bring BIG bucks.
What ya lookin for on a trade?
