The handle and blade stores on the inside.


There's a nick in the blade but that causes no problems, I used it like that for over a year.

The last time I tested it (about 10years ago) it dry shaved hair off my forearm with ease. I still have it, somewhere.
Damn it, SameOldStory. I loved the look of that Rolls Razor so much that I immediately googled for more information. (There's some videos on youtube).

And then I found one on offer on ebay (Australia) so I put in a bid. It's a Queensland address though, so the seller might be a little waterlogged right now.

Anyway, thank you for introducing me to the razor
