    Default Even by ebay standards this has to be a joke.

    Rector and Wilhelmy Co. Manufactured in Germany. Very nice razor in the original box. Hard to find. MAGNETIC "CLEAN CLIPPER" The handle is in excellent condition. I am not sure what it is made of, it is black with no cracks or chips. The blade has a "barbers notch"This notch has caused a lot of controversy, some saying it is for easy opening for the barber while others say it is to trim ear and nose hair. Magnetic Clean Clipper is on the blade, Rector & Wilhelmy Co. is on the blades handle on one side and on the other it says Germany. The handle measures 5 1/2" and the blade also measures 5 1/2". The box is in extremely nice condition for it's age.
    Please feel free to email me with any questions you may have or if you want more photos.

    I would say it is probably as the seller said ...... "for trimming ear and nose hairs" ..... albeit carefully........

    Note how the handle and box are in excellent condition but he makes no mention of the condition of the blade in his description.

    Sneaky! Though the photo does give the game away, somewhat.

    It is just a very fine spanish tip and has a little bit of a frown, probably from a stone that has not been well flattened (guess no diamond plate).

    Actually this is perfectly made for cut-throat, as the tip nicely hooks into the neck at the starting point. All then needed is a continuous pull. No need to care for correct pressure. Hook in, pull and the job is done.

    Completely clueless. But I still think "chin cutout" was the best.
    One time, in band camp, I shaved with a Gold Dollar razor.
