    Yeah, it's a microtome. Can tell from the auction pics.

    They're made that way for slicing thin layers of flesh.

    Other ppl have picked them up and sharpened them to shave with, but from what I hear, they can potentially be a pain to hone up.

    Nice find tho

    *EDIT* Search the forums for "microtome". You should pull up several threads.

    also, ask JimmyHAD. He has honed one up I know...others have as well, but I can't remember who atm.

    Here's one thread just real fast http://straightrazorpalace.com/advan...microtome.html
