    I remember barbers in the 60's using disposable blades for razor cutting hair. Don't remember if I ever had a razor cut with a real straight. I do remember barbers using 3/8 and 4/8 blades for trimming up the neck. Neat razor in any case.

    yes back in the 60s razor cuts were a big thing and the barbers used the smaller straights to do the work and charged more for it to.
