Thought I would post this since I have never seen one before and probably never will again. It is currently on eBay. If anyone has any info it would be appreciated. Here is the link Puma Stylist The RAREST Straight Razor You Will Ever Get A Shot at Buying | eBay Enjoy.

Well interesting but don't think I would be interested in that.

The comb looks like it would make stropping difficult.
Some things are rare for good reason :D
It will stay rare for that price to I think but will watch and see how it goes anyway
It's pretty practical. If it doesn't shave well, you can grow a beard and comb the beard with it.
I'm waiting for one with a .22 pistol in the scales.:D
Neat,gives me an idea for a brush handle:)Quote:

Prolly a reason THAT thing is rare, too! :D
I can't recall whether it was a Henckles or maybe a dubl duck, but I've seen a razor where the steel blade actualy had tines like a comb. It was for razor cutting hair, maybe a tool for a barber to use for thinning hair. Kind of like the barber's thinning scissors, which also have a comb in one of the steel blades.
That Puma is the first I've seen like it. Not my cup of tea but rare for sure. The one Zak posted is the one I want. If I get it I'll send it to Lynn to hone ! :p
The DD style edge like this one is meant for haircutting and trimming not shaving.
is this a boning razor ?Quote:

Agreed. It, and it's ilk, were used by Della and Mr. Tony at the salon in the 50's/60's as razor cuts were popular. Along the lines of Brummell, DD, and Filly 4/8's made for the purpose. Just because it has Puma upon it does not make it 'rare' nor necessarily desirable.Quote:

Now that thing Zak posted. Shave your face and cut off your ear at the same time.
Should be named the 'Van Gogh'! :dropjaw:
It is a morticians razor.
Yikes !:gaah:Quote:

I can do the same thing with adhesive glue, a comb, and a razor if anyone is willing to pay 800 for it!!
Ive seen combs I could probably make scales out of if people are willing to pay 900 bucks after shipping...
Looks useful to me -- I could simultaneously shave and comb the hair that inexplicably grows on my palms.
I'd expect it was used for thinning hair...its a straight razor version of a Durham Duplex if you ask me...
For 800$ I'd think about buying a comb and taking my Dremel out!!
Of course there is another one on Ebay. That's how it works. Somebody sees what they are trying to get (or worse yet, getting) and they say, "Hey! I have one of those!" " I'll put mine up too and get just as much!"
Saw that happen a while back when a bidding war broke out on a Reaper, and once the other auction went up, one of the 2 people fighting for it retracted their bid.
