I have an old straight handed down in my family but unsure of which family member originally owned it (believe my step-great grandpa).
It is marked Harris Goar Mfg Co Kansas City Mo. and the box has the same and a price of $3.00.
Handles are black celluloid or plastic material and the blade has pitting and a major chip in the very end of the blade.
I am considering cutting the blade down an inch or so so its past the chip and trying to get the rust out of it and giving it a spin.
Is a Harris Goar worth the effort and does anyone know the time period they were sold?
Thanks for any info.
