Thread: Check out the tang on this one!

I can tell you this much, I will not be bidding on any razors that were designed to pick at some other man's toes!!!!!!

Aside from how disgusting it is now,I was wondering how the heck it was made(forged?)

To me it looks like the latch endings on oldfashioned rural door latches, designed to facilitate opening by pressing them. Whatever the background: never seen one like this on a razor before - very interesting!

For posterity: Adams Dover & Folkestone

Hmm...i know who won this item and will be honing it for him/her. I must admit a certain curiousity, myself.

So all of that crud in the photos is from someone else's FEET?!? I think I'm gonna barf. Seriously, who would ever use a straight razor to cut their feet anyway?! This is really making me wretch.

I do. I get thick callouses on my toes and my heels so I use a corn razor or sometims a single sided razor blade to trim them down.

No offense intended!! I guess I was thinking more about using a USED corn razor on one's feet. If that's the typical practice, then I stand corrected!
