Exactly! I gave all my groomsmen a boxed razor, with soap and brush, 42 years ago.

Mine is an original, picked up in a pawnshop or gunshow, can't recall, and is in my ubiquitous CW haversack to this day. My grandfather always kept the stropping leather

hanging on the bath wall. I actually tried it out once and had the local barber do it old $tyle one time...all things considered the modern 5-bladed Gilette razor is better; and there's less bloodletting-especially when doing the full 'dome' Kojak look...by feel!??

i have one of those.
did not know what they were called, other than an unsafe, straight, shaving razor.

i, like Aktungbby, prefer to shave without significant bloodletting, so i use a five-bladed Harry's razor.

my straight razor was my father's, used during the war.
it has been at test depth.
