Just for interest
Back in the late 80s I was working and up in customers loft.
I used to fiind allsorts in lofts but on this day I found a razor blade sharpener.
You clipped blade inside and it had wheels with strong twine.
Customer explained you attach one end of twine to something then pull tight while sliding this boxed blade up and down.
Inside box was sharpening stones that moved to put edge on blade..
Anyone got one? Collectable?
Looking online. Maybe a Bakelite razor blade sharpener
