I have an old spring Pocket Balance, it has 2 scales, one reads 0-50lbs and the other 0-37 Katties, has anyone any idea what a Kattie is, other than 1.35lbs?

A katti (or kati and even catty) is a measurement used in SE Asia and China roughly equivalent to 1.3 lbs, as you yourself say. Perhaps the balance was made in the Far East?

Many Thanks Quizmonster, although made in Germany, its inscribed in English, so probably made for us when we had a lot to do with the Far East.
