Cattaraugus Cut Co. "Green Lizard"
Recently, I succumbed to poor judgment and paid too much for a lot of vintage razors. 21 razors in all many of which were dogs. The best of the bunch is the Green Lizard. It's not mint, but it's in excellent condition. A similar Green Lizard razor is pictured on page 106 of the Ritchie & Stewart Razor book 3rd Edition. Mine is in much better condition. I notice the Green Lizard in the book has a light colored spacer while mine has a jet black spacer which I like with the dark green. I have not honed or shaved with it yet. In that same book, Cattaraugus Cut Co. razors seem to have some of the highest base values of any razor (Winchester and Remington and maybe only a few others being higher).
At any rate, the deep lime green scales are very cool.
