Alright y'all I am somewhat stumped here and was hoping that some of y'all could clear something up. I was given a Boker Red Injun No 101 R.P. yet it is a square point. I thought the "R.P." was for round point. Here is a picture.Attachment 151514

Yep that's wired
According to this Red Injun advertisement the RP stands for round point. Perhaps the previous owner re-shape the point of your razor?

Nice to have a family heirloom like that, that said perhaps a very rare Red Injun with a miss matched stamp on it from the factory?
Here are some pictures of the end.Attachment 151517Attachment 151518Attachment 151519
Well all the information i see, and many 101RP online have a round point, so either it wasnt stamped incorrectly from the get go or somebody at some point in time fixed a chip or something. Maybe somebody could measure the blade from a 101 like from shoulder to point, and compare with yours. From the pics looks original.
So does any one know how I can confirm what razor it is? It really does not look like any of the other profiles I have seen with red injuns and all of the grind seems very dated and most likely done by the factory.
