    Default Info needed! 9/16" Corn Razor, Boots Sheffield

    Hi all. I was wondering if anyone could give me any information on one of these.

    A 9/16

    (I have included the e-bay link simply for a visual reference of the razor in question)
    I bought one a while ago at a market stall with the intention of practicing my honing on it (only cost me £10) and was a little curious if anyone had any info about them or could give me a link to somewhere that might.

    Kind regards

    Aaron

    The corn razors I've seen all had different shaped blades, unlike that one. I don't know about you, but I would try a shave with it, or maybe use as a cootchie razor.

    Thanks for that! Hadn't realised there was already a post to answer the question, so sorry!

    I might try a shave with it once i get a useable edge on it, at the moment its not useable (to dull) but it is getting there with work on the hones. Once its finished i'll let you know the result.

    Again, many thanks for that!

    Regards

    Aaron
