    I'd say excellent used condition for the blades but the pinning has been redone. Got them in a trade with a member of another shave forum.

    "excellent used condition"

    I like that term from an honest person I trust.

    Although I could see where that could be abused.

    This may sound like a stupid question, but I'll ask it anyway...

    With a straight razor this small, how in the world is a regular sized guy supposed to get a grip on one of these things that will allow him to safely control/manipulate the razor while he is shaving with it?

    I usually have my pinky on the tail while my thumb, index and middle fingers are on the tang.

    I have medium size hands and I can pretty much hold it the same way has I hold my normal size razor.

    I've got a little razor too. I understand it was originally for ear and nose hair
