    A corn razor, from what I understand, was a small open razor w/ usually a double curve edge (like a small kukri) used for slicing corns and callouses off your feet. I should probably buy one, as now I use a very sharp Opinel knife for this. Pumice stones are safer, but very slow.

    Toughen up and use a Dremel! As a diabetic, I see a podiatrist every two months. I have a couple of callouses on each foot and he uses what looks like a Dremel to sand them down.

    I use small nail scissors to trim them down and then hit the pumice. Generally I prefer to avoid them by wearing comfortable shoes/sandals/slippers/socks.
