The one I have is a Mercur I got NOS. Yes they were made that way. I imagine they were designed for trim work. I can't shave with it because its so small its hard to manipulate and wants to move on...

Actually if your going to use a straight for the task a 2/8s is even better that a 3/8s.

I have that issue too. The older you get the worse it becomes. I use a trimmer classic shaving sells. It looks like a cannon and you just squeeze it and it works great. I think its made by feather....
