    Seriously, I have no clue. The reversed comb is hilarious as usual. The handle looks like one of those "generic razor" types you see once in a while.

    Interesting score. I have no idea what it is. I'd like to see it properly assembled.

    It is an aluminum razor that normally comes in a box that says "Safety Razor". Worst razor I have ever held in my hand.

    I saw that auction and was laughing to myself.

    Was it stated to be in mint condition? Because all the mint old types I've seen have cracks
