The blade I was thinking of was the "DePews". The older you get the slower the search engine between the ears ...... here is an old thread showing one of them.
Edit; livingontheedge posted the info while I was typing. That is indeed the one. Finding the name wasn't so tough. Finding one of the razors in good shape, that is a different kettle of fish.Last edited by JimmyHAD; 02-18-2012 at 01:21 AM.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Thanked: 485I bought one the other day. I'm thinking of soaking the scales in neatsfoot oil after a little bit of polishing with wet and dry. I don't intend to remove the scales. I'll keep most but not all of the patina on the blade. :-)
I have a Schulze 'Wiener Schaber' that has a two and a half inch cutting edge. It's very nice for ATG, but also being a narrow blade (4/8) it's difficult to use the heel unless I place my thumb on the pivot rather than the bottom jimps...
Stranger, if you passing meet me and desire to speak to me, why should you not speak to me? And why should I not speak to you?

Thanked: 118Here is the Robeson Shuredge I was talking about. The blade is shorter than I guesstimated. It is just a hair over 2.25 inches.
If you can find one of these it would make a great goat trimmer. Its a great shaver and hold an edge a long time.
If anyone knows anything about this razor I would appreciate it.

May your lather be moist and slick, the sweep of your razor sure, and your edge always keen!
