    Can any of you provide an explanation for this? I don't quite get "to enable shaving cream to be spread."

    Looks like a candidate for bread knifing

    Looks more like a hair thinning tool to me.
    Or a beard thinner for that matter

    Looks like it would be used for trimming hair.

    No way that would go near MY face!

    I thought maybe someone was trying to hide a chip in the blade by putting in a whole lot more chips.

    Gotta be for hair thinning rather than shaving, kind of like those scissors with the comb instead of a second straight blade.

    It's for making tiny, tiny, corn rows.

    Many people on this site often remark on the joys of using a straight razor and lament that a great shave means that it will be longer before they need to shave again.
    This razor allows almost twice as much shaving for the same result.. thus increasing the joy gained from straight razor shaving.

    Edit: and apparently this makes 100 posts

    All this time I've been removing the nicks in my blades; I could have left them there to "spread the creme".

    It's for hair trimming. Probably missing a part, some kind of guide or something. it's similar to the DD hair shapers.
