http://www.wrcase.com/index_en.php pretty well known knife maker - I don't know much about their straights though, sorry. It looks like they made straights for a lot of the domestic barber supply and hardware store brands though.
I really like Case razors. Most that I have had are either Red Imp's (though Ludo and Morris also made Red Imps) or Temperites (though I have also seen Temperites that say "English Steel" and do not say Case on them). There are other Case razors out there as well.
These are great shavers.

Agreed. But, other than the Red Imp, Case razors seem to fall into the collectors catagory and seem often overpriced when contrasted with other US razors. I guess Case knife collectors expand into the razor area.
Why the Red Imps don't seem to attract collectors is a mystery to me. But the Case Imp 132 wedge I own is an excellent shaver.

I guess it's luck of the draw. I can rememeber times when Red Imps would fetch at least $70 in great shape, but I've also seen my fair share of Imps, Temperites, and other models quite cheap. On ebay it's often a matter of pics, seller's rep, and the title of the auction.

Hmm...I've never heard of them. I'm familiar mostly with Genco and other american brands.
...Case is an American brand
I have a really nice little Case razor. It takes a great edge. Got it as a gift
