Ebay Barbers notch

[Prof. Moriarty]

The description says that the hole in the blade is a barbers notch. Never seen a barbers notch placed there so I think the guy is just talking rubbish, or am I mistaken?

Your barber is going to have a heck of a time "holding" the razor there.
I vote rubbish.

Good lord!!!

 

[Doc226]

HAHAHAHAHA.

That is junk. I like how he says the blade has no damage

 

[darkxshiki]

from my limited straight shaving experience. i agree also rubbish. no clue why the barber would hold the blade there.

 

[Prof. Moriarty]

Good that we all agree, wanted to take the cautious route just in case this was some new design I hadn't heard of

I give him an A+ on his salesmanship and an F on integrity.

 

[smalltank]

lmao..its a notch below and a slice every which way

 

[Skyrider55]

Guys, it's a notch for your whole nose when you go ATG on your upper lip.

 

[brother cavefish]

LOL,the barber notched alright, this helps get as close to your nose as possible and get those straggling nose hairs that help make a healthy mustache

HAHAHAHAHA.

What a nincompoop!

 

[Slash McCoy]

Someone should buy that just to open up a case on him. What a poser!

Too bad there isn't a place on each item to leave comments. The guy would get laughed off of ebay!

After scouring ebay looking for razors for a few years now, I'm afraid that idiots like that no longer surprise me.

Caveat emptor.

There seems to be more of these people than those with integrity.

I asked the seller what the scales were made of and commented that was not a barber notch, he responded with a kind message and removed the razor from sale. Stand up guy, maybe he did not know any better.

The seller is also the guy that is trying to sell a Fili with the two cracks at the heel of the blade. He pointed it out very well with a pen. Don't believe he is a bad seller, just thought the listing was a bit of a laugh.
Thanks for clearing it up Doc.

What's even more impressive is the people who will buy junk like that. I'm still shocked that someone actually paid $150 for this supposed coticule: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&item=350564536043&nma=true&rt=nc&si=N%252BL8f6hZ1COD2PLLobmuJQmoNXA%253D&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc#ht_2010wt_1041

(Oh, and yes, I told the seller that it's not a coticule, but I never got a reply. The buyer will be lucky if it's even a natural stone, but I doubt that too.)

It was a barber's notch at once time. It just slid down a little is all.

I've seen smoother concrete blocks. I like how it's in Good-Very Good condition with several chunks missing.
