That's just a fun name to say Katar-ah-goose. Should just call em goose knives. (or would that be geese then? oh well...)
Anyway, congrats , thats a nice design on that one.

Sadly, that is not an original Catt from Little Valley, NY. Maybe a rerun by A G Russell or J Parker?

I have seen an old Catt ad from the teens that said pronounced " Cat-a-raw-goose", yep they are goose knives. Nobody in the town of Cattaraugus or the county of the same name pronounces it this way today.

I am not a purist collection, so it’s good for me

It’s a Cattaraugus USA-1 (A.G. Russel) Brass Statue of Liberty 2 Blade Pen Knife

I’ll need to somehow validate it was/was not made in USA

If not,,, it’s back to eBay it goes!
