Equal End Senator Whittler?

The Cattaraugus Cutlery Company was started by John Champlin and his son Tint in 1882. It was first incorporated under the name J.B.F. Champlin and Son as a wholesale distribution company based in Little Valley, New York. The business proved to be a successful endeavor, and it soon branched into a knife production company named Cattaraugus.

I was advised by the seller that this is a Equal End Senator Whittler 32794. Can anyone confirm?

That sounds rigth to me. The equal end isn't necessary since senators are equal ended.
If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.

Might want to check that pattern number. The "4" as a last number denotes celluloid or "fiberloid". That looks like worn jigged bone,which is "9" in a pattern number. So 32799. Ritchie and Stewart's catalog reprint says Catt called it a "whittler pen". Should be 3" closed. Nice one. J.O'.
