Bought it because I liked the looks of it
Now I just need to figure out how to use it[emoji1]
I found some older threads showing the mechanics of the Curley razor as far as changing the blade. It might be fun to shave with. Is anybody using one?

Never saw one like that before. I love those old razors, especially SE's with wedges, and I have several in my collection. Very interesting this one; I would love to hear how the blade hones and how it shaves. Enjoy!

Got one of those, a little older perhaps, in my collection of odd framebacks
Never tried to shave with it though.Last edited by Thaeris; 04-14-2016 at 07:37 PM.

Shumate made one like that too. I've seen one, but never had one myself. This pic came from google images ;
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

The blade in the Curley is permanent, or at least mine is. The trigger mechanism is for flipping the guard to the other side as-needed. They actually shave quite good, FME.

I rest my case.

Good steel and shavers and the "guard" does work.
