i would not dream of it even in my worst night terrors.
Glad you posted that. I've saved the photo for threads where new members ask, "What is meant by a frown?"

By the time you honed that frown out of there you'd be left with a metal toothpick!Quote:

I was thinking the same thing... looking at the wear on the spine and the apparent wear at the edge, I was trying to figure out what the hone surface must have been like.Quote:

You guys don't get it. If you check all the references you will discover a handful of outfits in the 1930s manufactured what was called a bowtie razor. It was made for very specialized uses and they are so rare, the last one I saw went up for auction at Christie's. As I recall it went for 50 grand.
Think I'm kidden?
:w
I believe that it's a Chin Razor. The Arch in the middle allows you to shave your chin in only one pass!! It more than worth double what they are asking!
Talk about a double extra extra hollow grind, :dropjaw:
Ahh, but if you were shaving ATG, wouldn't that be a smiling edge? :hmmm: ;)Quote:

So, off it goes, into the lessons learned, drawer of shame; never to be gazed upon by human eyes again.
