    Looks like it has been adapted for another use, sharpening pencils maybe..

    There is a company that makes"historical" blade RSO's. The etch is factual.
    Out of the box, they look 1800's. Be careful out there!

    Guys, that's one of the most honest descriptions I've seen lately when it comes to razors. In my humble opinion, it does not belong to this thread.
    As the time passes, so we learn.

    IMO, there are two reasons SRs wind up on this thread: the seller is pulling a fast one with the description, or "it's a shame" the blade is in such a condition. YMMV.

    The oldest straight on EBay--from 1st Century Rome & only $140 USD.

    Seller states, "YOU COULD SEE HOW IT COULD WORK." I sure could in all the seller's blurry photos.

    A razor, really? That would have been my last guess for what looks like an antique horse pin. Good thing he provided 10 blurry photos all from nearly the same angle.

    The wostenholm pipe razor on the previous page has been fashioned into a crooked knive. A crooked knife was a wood carving tool used by Native Americans in the Northeast to carve canoe paddles, make snowshoes, etc. The knife is held in an underhand grip and drawn toward the user.

    I swear that horse figure thing has appeared on this thread as long as I've been a member here...
