I just found this thing on ebay and found it hilarious. Has anyone ever seen before? What's next, a watch razor? How about a razor ring? :rofl2:

I nearly posted this last week but feared it may be a bad idea.
I saw an auction for ONE of these with a BIN of 450 US Dollars!!!!
I then researched them and found they typically sell for very little.
I suppose it would make sense as an emergency backup for a travler??? But generally you can always find an equally bad disposable at most destinations for less money.
It is a head scratcher for me...but someone obviously thought it was a marketable idea.
I think it's kind of cool! I mean it's not all that practical for me, but I have a buddy who has to literally shave two times a day if he's got evening engagements. Considering his job has him all over the city... I could see it coming in handy for him now and again. 5 o'clock shadows on a guy in an expensive suit when you are over 40 just doesn't look all that cool lol.
I think I might buy one for him as a stocking stuffer though... I don't know about using public bathroom soaps as shaving cream is all that desirable lol!! Hmmmm.
Looks like a cheese slicer...
See that is just it. If you are that important that you need to shave 2x a day...do you not also have access to a car or briefcase where you could stash some quality gear and HOPEFULLY a decent mirror LOL.
LOL - sure! That's why even though I have tried to sell him on traditional methods... he's got an electric in his car, in his office, and his house.Quote:

I still don't know about the cream issue though lol.
*EDIT* oh and I don't know if being busy makes you important lol... though I am sure he would like to think so :).
I figured he is either important, or thinks he is, if he is wearing an expensive suit. Either way it seems logical that he would value a good shave with proper gear vs. showing up with bits of TP stuck all over his face:D
The guy in that advert photo appears to be dry shaving with that thing? I hope the handle is made of styptic or similar LOL
Not really my usual type of shaving doohickey but I can see a use for it. I tend to go on camping, fishing and ski trips where space is a premium and I don't want to lose or bang up a straight or DE.
As I don't usually keep a disposables around I'd consider one of these to have handy in my car kit.
Right!?! It always amazes me how many guys I try to sell on the virtues of a traditional shave only to see them politely smile and walk away thinking I am bonkers! For yet another reason :). It's almost as though I am asking them to forgo the internet or something lol.Quote:

True, but at least you'd be clean-shaven.Quote:
