    Yea and if you have a car in bad shape you could cut the frame, use two wheels and the engine and make a motorcycle out of it.

    That razor is toast.

    No but if you have a nice set of pressed horn scales, you dont toss them in the trash. Why not save the good?

    Even if you could, the edge would always have a chip where the two corners of the crack meet. It will cut you.

    If you have a Dremel, or can put your hands on one. Butcher it. Cut the bad stuff out. Not like you have much to lose.

    You have to be careful cutting so as not to overheat and destroy the temper.

    I have a very square jar, and my neck looks like the foothills of a mountain range coming up to it.
    I use this thing almost every time I shave to scoop out the two hollows under my jaw line.
    Works like a charm.
    Again not for everyone, but if you need an edge with a little less real estate. YMMV.

    I think chimes are the most artistic use of blades that have found the end of their life as shaving razors.
