    Default Razor Coffin?

    Being a sucker for old oddities I picked this up today. Not sure if it really is an old razor coffin but it will do the job. Looks like it will take quite a bit of cleaning up.

    I see a lot of old glasses at antique stores, in cases similar to this.

    Yes, that was another thought I had too. It could easily be what it is.

    Does it slide open into two pieces like a razor coffin ? Cool whatever it was originally for if it works.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I'm betting it was a case for reading glasses. If it's metal it would probably make a good travel case for a razor.

    Yup, slides open like a razor coffin or, alternatively, reading glasses case.
