Razor blade sharpener
I have a RHODES KRISS KROSS STROP PAT. JUNE 30 1921. Put a blade in the holder then crank and it spins the blade on a leather and then turns it over and sharpens the other side. Pretty neat.

Pretty neat indeed. I've never seen or heard of one.

I have seen one of those a couple of years ago in an antique mall. Really a useful item back in the day.

Re: Razor blade sharpener
They helped smooth the thicker carbon blades of yesteryear so you could get a few more shaves. They don't do much for the thinner stainless steel blades of today.
If you're want a bit more info from folks who've used one, check out The Shave Den, a sight all about tradition shaving - puck of soap, brush, 100 year old razors...
