THE ZENITH RAZOR STANDS HI&H BY ITS OWN MERIT,


GUST. KNEOHT MANUFACTURING CO., CHICAGO.

Now, as all good things are liable to be imitated, parties


trying to, and imagine tliey could get an article to equal the

ZENITH RAZOR.
The first thing they do, is to find an attractive name for
such goods ; look at other cataloguer for various names they

have chosen to that effect.

Some dealers imagine the abduction of a good name (stamped


upon goods) would blinden their patrons, who take it an oppor-
tunity to give such an assertion a small trial.

lb Illlll lilil will isttf ill fteie attiafls!

It is made in a manner not known to others, and stands firm


by its quality.

This name and ^-^^'^;2^'''=—^ is used only for the identifica-


tion of these celebrated Razors, because when our patrons once
had them, they want them again.

What is a barber without a good razor? Made for his pur-

pose alone.
The ZENITH RAZOR fills this place; it is, as it stands,

UNIVERSAL as to quality and reputation. The DIAMOND


ZENITH RAZOR and Gust. Knecht's o^^m make ALL STEEL
(hammered) SHEARS are the priin^cipals of the barber's cut-
lery.

GRINDING AND REPAIRING.

Please Observe the following Directions when Sending in Barbers' Cutlery for Grinding:


Mail Packages. Do not paste, nor seal, nor put in any writing. Write your name
and address outside, and send instructions extra by letter, according to late postal regula-
tions. Razors should be wrapped with thin, neat wire around before the paper wrap-
per is placed on.


Express Packages. You can put in letter with full address and instructions. It is
the safest way to send by express. Packages of one Razor or Shears should be prepaid.

Please attach your address to all orders and packages you send for repairs.

Clippers being in bad order, additional charge may be necessary. Grinding of Clip-

job right. The newly invented machine for grinding Clippers, which we have, works
like a charm.

As we are MECHANICS ourselves, we claim to do what is called "A No, 1 Work."


Concaving of Razors in proper style is an art of itself, and ought to be placed in the
hands of real mechanics only.

WE DO NOT GRIND RAZORS DRY.

Our establishment is systematically arranged, provided with the most practical and
latest improvements and inventions of our own, so there is no need of unscrupulous
puffs, calculated only for people who never look at real facts.

HONES.
Our advantages iu filling Orders for Hones. —The way and manner as started by Mr.
Knecht, Sr., a few years ago, when in Europe, having the Hones undergo a close
inspection, before they leave the quarry (every single one) by one thus educated
expert, has given us a great advantage and benefit in receiving nothing but selected
goods. Our Hone trade is a large one, and we shall continue in employing all possible
means to secure good hones for our patrons. We can thus say we have better Hones to
offer than the ordinary market supply.
Please give particulars with order as to grit, size and limited price.

We have the Swatt Razor Hones, Price $3, and sell these on their own merit.

A well assorted Stock of Barber Poles is kept on hand in

After manj' experiments we have come to the conclusion that


Poles turned from a dry and solid cedar beam stand exposure to
the weather far better than those made of hollow ordinary pine
wood.
We t urn out quite a number of Poles, and many are to be found
on the streets of Chicago and elsewhere.
The first attraction of a well fitted up Barber Shoj) is a good
nice Pole.

Our painter is an artist in his line. Nothing but tlie best


material is used; the balls and rings are gilded with i^ure gold leaf.
The colors on our Poles keep their bright appearance for several
years.

Our No. 5 Pole is octagon in renter, with raised gilded stars.
