Tesla's razor

I just watched a documentary about Nikola Tesla and they showed the stuff from his room in a New York hotel and there was a scene of his razor. I can describe to you and when I see it I will remember but I dont now the name. I've seen the pics on this board and it looks like this:
It's in a (prolly) leather case with 2 cylindrical metal cases (one for brush). Diamond shaped engravings on the handle.

I have always found Tesla very interesting...and wonder what he used to shave with?
HA! Was static electricity part of the routine?

Tesla was the person that paved the way to use AC instead of DC. AC has the advantage of easily being up or down converted through a transformer.

Also AC was more suitable for longer power transmisson lines.

It look a little like this- but all of it is metal:

Watch the video at the top banner (his personal items). Recognize something?

I heard he just truned on the old tesla coil and ran a fork across his face.

If I couldn't control my thoughts or focus without fierce effort, I would probably try to make shaving as fool-proof as possible too.

Back then, it was a DE.

Point taken. Shaving was a chore not a hobby.

That's one nice razor, I will have to look at that video tonight...

I'd rather know more about Occam's Razor.

These are the jokes, folks. (sorry!)
