NOTES OF INTEREST:
In 1898 Jerry Reichard started the Gem Cutlery Co. in New York and patented the company's first product, the Gem Safety Razor. The razor was so successful that the company changed its name to the Gem Safety Razor Co. in 1900. They merged with Star and Ever-Ready to become the American Safety Razor Corp. in 1919.
