Benefits of a moustache razor

What is a moustache razor?
Some people mistakenly refer to the little corn razors as mustache razors.
Those things were designed to cut corns off your feet rather than to shave with. While most of them have a blade more reminiscent of a knife, I have seen them that looked like a miniature razor.
Maybe this is what the OP is asking about?

Merkur mustache/brow razor
very strange. Son got me one from AoS and I returned it.
As you can see it does NOT take regular blades- you must use a blade that fits only this razor which has a wider cutting surface on one side than the other.

Corn razors;
Well, go ahead. I guess the benefit may be more agiltiy in some regards, but pondering this, I got to thinking, I can get around my schnoz with a 6/8, takes a bit o' practice but, what the hell?
Skip the moustache razor, and have a good laugh on my fuggely mug.

Well Bill? I admire you for posting your pic. 
I shave above my 'stache as you do with a 9/8 on a regular basis. Have to get a pretty sad angle right under the old schnoz, but other than that, it's not an issue.

Aren't you tempted to just mow all of that off every time you shave?
It would probably turn you to stone if I posted a pic without the hair...
In my pre-straight days my routine was to wake (4:30 AM) up, have a smoke and a cup o' tea then shower. I would take my, now forlorned, electric and grind my face before shower. About once a week I use a Norelco beard trimmer with an adjustable guard to even out my beard/stash.
Can you tell where this is going?
OK, maybe not.
Anyway, one morning, still half asleep, I grab the Norleco, start trimming my beard, I do this in the shower, not in front of a mirror. I looked down in the shower stall and an inordinate amount of hair is on the floor. I look at my trimmer and realize the guard is not on it (I had removed it for some previous trim work, and forgot to reattach). Needless to say, by now I had cut off more than half my beard and stash. Too late for any saving grace, so I went ahead and finished the deed. I was almost too embarassed to let my wife see me.
First time since young adulthood that I had been without facial hair.
At that time I remembered why I grow a stash... because I have NO upper lip!
Kind regards,
Bil
