    Everyone just step away from the Horseshoe razor, and nobody gets hurt..


    Just a WAG here since I can't hold it in my hand, but I am thinking this might be some kind of "Knife" "Scraper" or perhaps something specialized like a "Patch Knife"

    Do we think the pics are really from 2007 or just a digicam without a set date?

    Either way, I'd hate to see the brush the guy made from the rest of the horse.

    I'm not an expert in these things but this could be cleaned up a little, honed by a professional and either be a nice shaver or a valued addition to your collection.

    Yuck, horseshoe? In a few moments someone will suggest making a strop out of the horse's hide

    Seems like it could be a homemade Farrier's tool moreso than a SR. ?? Without a marking for indication or the Maker telling me different that is what I would guess upon seeing it. ??

    That turd has been relisted many times.
    One time, in band camp, I shaved with a Gold Dollar razor.
