Ok thanks G that makes things clearer for me.
Well at least we know that French points (oblique) were manufactured in France amongst other countries.
Still its strange that the name Spanish point was given to a razor that is rare as hens teeth.
Maybe I can invent an Australian point, which would be really impressive since I donīt think Australian made razors exist o_OLast edited by bonitomio; 05-25-2012 at 07:58 AM.

All I know is that I want one (or more) regardless of what they are called.
Aussie points are actually made from beer cans

How do you know the term Spanish Point refers to Spain? Maybe the first guy who made one lived on Spain Avenue and it was named for that?

May be Irish point.
From "The Barbers Manual" by A.B. Moler, Edition 1924:
So. It's very difficult to find the origin of all these Points/Notch now.
I've never seen the name "Spanish Point" in old barbers books or catalogs.

Thanks for posting this article Manah.
Living in Spain and not seeing one locally made Spanish point razor has been very exasperating.
Irish point I had heard of, but a Dutch point?
Are there razors out there that were manufactured in Holland?
