    Default Yet Another Question

    Among the Zeepk ads there is from time to time an ad or two for a vintage razor. Among the stats for this will invariably be a length closed and often a length open. Generally there is no mention of the width of the blade. Why?

    speculation abounds, Bruce

    The uninitiated have no idea what blade sizes mean. They think in terms of knives where the blade length is the measurement people pay attention to. That would be my guess, anyway. People are more familiar with knives so I suspect they just treat the razors like knives when they list them.
