    I think you need to contact Glen and maybe he can fix up two straights with a connecting bridge to create a single blade!

    Although known for their veggies at one time these were produced for the Jolly Green Giant's personal use.

    Jody, that thing looks terrible! Please call Dale and get that into Reliable ASAP! No plating left at all.

    That more than likely would cost a cool couple of thousand in nickel, and I don't want to think about Rhodium! :shocked003:

    thevez2 uses Gillette's new Tarantula Razor - 8 blades!!

    I looked at the first picture and wondered where they found such a small ruler.

    Great looking razor, looks awful scary and a blade would make it downright dangerous. was this Frankstein's razor?

    5 pound mortar barrels from the 1800s don't crack.:D Flip the baseplate, and that's exactly what it is.:scared001:

    I believe someone over on B&B is the new owner.

    Well, it could come in handy if you wanted to shave a wooly rinoceros or mammoth so you can use the hairs for a new brush...
