Thread: Looking for a straight that is shorter than the standard 2 3/4"

Chris, I own one . It is Marked "Viener Schauber" (Vienna Scrapper). I believe it is made by Whacker. The cutting edge length is 2 3/8" and the blade width is 4/8". It is a shoulderless grind and has a French point. I will look for a picture and post it if I find it.

Here you go Chris, keep in mind I'm no a photographer. Fully open 8 1/2", closed 5 5/8", & from tip of blade to tip of tang 5 1/8". Is this what you are talking about?



Regards
Louis.

This is the shorty one.

Dubl Duck has the Dwarf, Korn and Catti and maybe others have "The Real," there's the Solgin's out of Japan, Torrey made the Little Guard, Jung made the Junior, the ones shown above, probably a bunch of others, and, of course, any razor can be ground to a shorter length (common way to get rid of chips/cracks by the toe).

I've sold two razors(Hugo Koller, Solingen) with short blades some weeks ago.

Japanese made straights can be found that are shorter than 2"
I used to have Nubiru and FON, both great shavers and short.
