French Patent 1819 for Razor with interchangeable blade.

[Martin103]

Mr Charles coutelier (cutler) from St-Sauveur in Paris, in the year of 1819, received a patent for a razor with interchangeable blade. Camille Page in his books on cutlery refers to this type of razor as being from the beginning of the 19th century. At the Exposition in
1823, Mr Charles presented his razors with intechangeable blades to the public.


Rameau a Sens another cutlery claimed to be the inventor of the frameback razor? Jacques Lecoultre from Switzerland and his famous frameback, both makers were well after Mr Charles. Is it possible that he was the inventor of the frameback as we know it today?
