CATTARAUGUS CUTLERY LITTLE VALLEY, NY MOTHER OF PEARL

[winchester907]

CAN SOMEONE HELP ME DATE THIS MOTHER OF PEARL. I KNOW ITS ONE OF THE EARLIER STAMPINGS, BUT IT DOESN'T HAVE A NUMBER. JUST CATTARAUGUS CUTLERY COMPANY, LITTLE VALLEY, NY. ITS ONE OF THE FEW I FOUND THAT I PUT A SPOT OF OIL ON THE BLADE AND IT SNAPS LIKE A NEW ONE. THE MOTHER OF PEARL IS GREAT. HOPE YOU CAN HELP. ITS THREE INCHES LONG. TWO BLADES. ONE FILE. THE MASTER BLADE IS STILL ETCHED ACROSS THE ENTIRE BLADE AND STILL VISIBLE-CATTARAUGUS. THANKS MUCH FOR ANY HELP IN ADVANCE. ITS A GREAT LEARNING SITE.
