    Has anyone seen or heard of this one? I tried a search on here and google and both came up fruitless. I'm just wondering anyone has any info. Sorry for the poor pictures.

    Just about had a heart attack when I saw the title and wondered if Merkur made electric shavers. Nice looking blade with a nice even bevel.
