A Mr. Fuller introduced a similar improvement, which Weiss claimed Fuller had pirated from him. The only difference between Weiss's Improved Scarificator and Fuller's Improved Scarificator was that the blades in Weiss's were arch shaped and those of Fuller's crescent shaped.

The cupper, Knox, preferred the crescent blades because they gave a sharper cut. In any case, most nineteenth-century scarificators were made with crescent-shaped blades. On Fuller's scarificator, see BAYFIELD, op.

cit. [note 87], pages 99-100; and, SEERIG, op. cit. [note 111], pages 604-605 and plate 56.
