    Default Unusual Sized Rodgers

    Check out this unusual sized Joseph Rodgers.

    I won't be bidding on this because unfortunately the box doesn't match the razor.

    That size IS indeed unusual. It would make a great shaver for those hard to open letters.

    I like Rodgers razors and this, has not spine wear.
    Definitely was honed with tape on the spine.

    I've been looking for a toothpick! I think that will do nicely!

    Well, since the box does not match the razor... just going to have to opt out on this one. Shame, because there are never enough Joseph Rodgers blades in a collection...

    Look at the tang, right where it meets the blade, it's tiny as well. It would indeed have to have been made very small to begin with. And the line where the blade meets the spine looks fairly sharp doesn't it? It really doesn't look over honed, but it definitely tapers and is ridiculously small. Unusual to say the least.

    Default You are so incompetent

    I don't know where have you been, but if you've checked ebay, you will know that this size is fairly common. Nothing unusual here, but it is relatively rare.
    I'm not bidding on it either, so feel free to snipe low.

    I thought this looked familiar. Apparently back in the middle of March this was posted as well.
