    Well given the state of 1960's Soviet engineering, you may be right.

    It was scrap steel from old tanks. Why would they waste a good butter knife?

    When butter distribution was reduced to every third Tuesday from 1:00 to 1:15, interest in butter knives began to wane. People began looking for re-purpose opportunities.

    Yeah but at least standing in line for those 15 minutes gave you the chance to build community. A butterless community, but hey, friends are better than butter.

    I would almost welcome a chance to try it as well. It looks fun. Was it shave tested after honing?

    The description was "tuggy". That's probably being generous.

    Since the razor is Soviet era, 1960s, it's appropriate to play this version of the fight song. The Soviet and Russian Federation versions are the same tune, different words. So, here you go.
