Thread: An arqueological razor?

Thanks for the explanation, but it is not necesary, I only try to show everybody the origen of the rests dificult use it thanks nevertheless ans I spect my english not to make too much disasters

In a dry land provably only hard iron, not steel sure and not bronze or any cooper alloy, thanks

Roberto, I may be mis-interpreting what you wrote, but when you say "Granada in a work into a Jewry" are you saying an old Jewish settlement/section of Granada? If so, I would like to put forth the concept, since probably most Jews of the time didn't shave, that it could be a ritual circumcision razor?

Thank you, thank you, I'll take my bows now, thank you. But I would like a Judaic expert to make comments. It just seemed logical since I don't think decent scissors were available at that time. Plus, I think that was before the Inquisition and expulsion of Jews from Spain.
