    I kinda see what you mean. The description ends with...
    On Nov-19-17 at 22:11:33 PST, seller added the following information:
    Picture # 12 is a picture of an Escher that previously sold on eBay and used for comparison purposes only
    So I looked at pics #11 & #12. The devil is in the details!

    I have SOLD over 50 straight blade razors worth thousands of dollars in the last few weeks. All of the razors and hones were found in an old barn in Stowe Vermont. These have been in that box for over a 100 years and guaranteed to impress.

    I agree Tom but eBay probably wouldn't do anything about it because all they care about these days is the money some of these things generate!

    Apparently some "old timers call these corn razors, but they are in fact tiny salesman samples.

    FYI: My use of "old timers" came from his description. I thought it was funny how he describes it.

    I always thought the idea behind a salesmans sample was to make it easier for them to carry something that would have otherwise been too large
