    That's wild looking. I can't figure out how you use it.

    Wow nice find. Looks like it's pretty minty! They're pretty neat little contraptions and I've only seen one of these in action on a YouTube vid. Actually that reminds me, the kid that did the vid demonstrating one of these partially amputated one of his fingers clearing a jam from hedge trimmers without unplugging them first in one of his other vids. Poor guy. Safety first people and not just on the job, bring it home with you too!

    Lol yeah they are pretty sweet.

    I put the Rolls together and it fits nice and tight still, even has the original grease on the sliding tracks inside! I don't think I'd ever try shaving with it though lol I feel safer with my straights.

    I bought the Schick because it looked interesting, it's awesome how it hold the blades and injects them by sliding the bottom rail.

    I'll have to see if I can find replacement blades for it.

    Roll's razor's can deliver a great shave once honed. Almost as good as a straight IMHO. I have owned several of them and generally I tune em up and gift them out to people who want to stick a toe in the proverbial wet shaving pond. Once sharp the barber hone on the inside can keep it that way for quite a long time. The only thing I change on them is I cut new leather for the strop. Good find and have fun

    Especially neat if you dont have the time for the relaxing straight shave. I can "roll" my face over in about 2/3 the time as my straight. (though when I get fast, I also get a bit careless/sloppy!)
