The auto strop is indeed a safety razor. I am offering it as a freebe on another site. If anyone here wants it I am willing to give it away for the cost of postage.

I've got a couple like yours. All I've ever seen is the 718 type in different widths, I'v got a 5/8 and a 6/8 both bearing an etching saying "Widerstrahl". They are rumoured to be Le Grelots for the german market (according to the RasurPur web site). Mine are excellent shavers and both were a steal, IIRC. Does anyone here know more about the brand and cares to enlighten the rest of us?
