Thread: Odd razor on action site

Hi guys!

I found this odd razor on a Finnish action site. The razor is a sheffield razor, can't really tell te manufacturer...
Did they really make razors like this? Or did someone decide that they needed a butterknife instead?

Never seen one like that. Real weird. Almost like a corn razor but bigger.

Yea, corn razor would have been my guess too.

It reminds me of a repair for a stubbed toe, or maybe someone had really big corns that required the mother of all corn razors.

Yeah, looking at how much scale there is past the point, with the razor closed, it must have been shortened.

So if no one know if they made razors like this. I guess that someone probably reshaped the point to get a really sharp knife/corn razor for a specific purpose. It is a kinda common Finnish mentality to take what you have and use it to what you need!
