    I daresay ingenuity played a large role in that sort of thing, If I was living in a rat infested trench in WWI for example, I might have coated my razor blade with beeswax from a candle and rubbed my stop down with a mixture of beeswax and kerosene or something to help prtect them from moisture and, in the case of the strop, the rats as well...Rats don't like the taste of kero I hear.
    Just my thoughts there.
