    Default Joseph Rodgers with scissor tail

    I acquired this Joseph Rodgers razor recently and was wondering if anyone else had seen a straight razor with this scissor-handle-like tail as I had never seen or heard of it before. The seller told me he had had a total of three in his thirty years of collecting; one that he sold years ago, this Joseph Rodgers he sold me, and one with gunstock ivory scales that he was keeping.

    +1 I've never seen one either. I don't know how I could shave with one like that?

    Very cool!!! I would think that would have caught on since a barber could hang his razor easily. Is it any harder to handle with that there?

    Pretty neat. Rodgers did some unusual things with razors.

    I rest my case.
