What is a bouble edged razor?

... something lost in translation, there.

It takes two WHOLE double-edge blades:

Double-layer knife holder men's razor manual razor old-fashioned shaving knife Ningfeng knife holder

Reminds me somewhat of the vintage Golf:

Kinda like a double-tier 1924.

If I see a spelling or grammatical error on anything, including takeaway/restaurant menus, I wouldn't touch the goods with a barge pole. In these days of spellcheck, any company that can't be bothered to get that basic information correct shows an attitude of carelessness, or can't be bothered, and is not getting my dosh!

Flip this around ...

My Engineer son made a machine and programmed all the software for a client in China. Upon installation, he found the folks on site were chuckling at what they saw. He asked. Apparently, he'd translated into traditional Chinese and so it sorta read a bit like "pushhe forthe ye olde buttonne". Kudos, he re-wrote it then and there and they were very happy with it.

Vintage. It's a GDR/DDR (so, former East Germany) razor, which puts it between the end of WW2 and re-unification in 1990. It'll be 1960s.

(Or perhaps I'm the product of an older education system where these things matter )
And don't get me started on "could of" etc!!

I once had BT ring me up to discuss why I was cancelling my broadband with them. I told them that as their official renewal letter had informed me that "You're deal is about to expire", I had no faith in any other aspect of their ability to supply what was offered

A sharp river dancer is it not.

Nice little delivery this morning, thank you @Rohleder @Driftwood

Finally took delivery of the Era as well, internal packaging was ripped but no drama. I'm going to say there's something up with the extra OC plate though, one side looks ok the other looks like it'll shred:

Clue. One of them is the forum passaround, the other was acquired on the BST today so that I need not suffer when I have to pass the older one on.

Here he is in his box, mint.
