And there is no shaving cream... 

[enki_ck]

Interesting concept. Now who's gonna order one and try it out?

I am out of gadget related funds for a while... 

[Yadda]

Not me. Doesn't look remotely interesting.

+1 I have a 5 o'clock shadow by about 0745 anyway, I can pull off the stubbly look.     Besides, with at least a SAK, a folder, and a Lansky kit always nearby at work, I have no need for a dedicated razor..... 

[Syph007]

Seems pretty silly.  I like how the name is spelled wrong on the razor in the pic.

[Rs217]

Woof. I would be very scared of using that!

Well spotted.

No way I'm testing this without a handsome reward or a gun on the head...

I like the idea  but it does remind me of a potato peeler

It's a multitool? Spread the word!   

[Cupboard]

My potato peeler is just like a razor, except it's blunter and rustier.

I can't help but look at this thing and think it's an invention without a market.

Does anyone need to carry a razor with them? Do guys find themselves needing an emergency shave?

It's either genius in its vision or stupid, and I just don't know which... although I have my suspicions.

Yes. My brother used to travel all over the globe, well to sell power plants (or parts thereof). Usually that was out of the plain and into the conference room, so he shaved before touchdown.
So its not so much as an emergency shave but a maintenance shave. Of course you cannot shave without cream and lotion so a wallet razor is completely boink.

Hah-HAH!! Have I got the solution for you!

In theory a great solution, however you are forgetting: Anything no-name-brand is a no-go if you wear a suit or buy a MT!

I will retort with the 'Cheap and Cheerful' forum. It is BOTH no-name, AND MTs. So...

In any case, it's a solution.

Yes but most that is "Cheerful" is acquired for research purposes and not to actually use

Love the "Military Items" group with only the GOJO Purell® Instant Hand Sanitizer - Fst™ Military Bottle - 3 fl. oz.  $4.39

Nobody was proposing to buy this for any other purpose than experimentation. When I said I stumbled upon this while looking for wallet edc items, I did not mean to imply I had any intention of actually buying it (I bought a credit card sized stainless steel mirror a credit card size fresnel lense). 

But it can't be much worse than a no name disposable razor, can it?

I just use water... I give myself far fewer cuts since I stopped using potions, it's quicker, less messy and just as good. Wash face whilst I'm showering, rinse the razor under the tap and then keep rinsing it under the hot tap every stroke to keep the hair out and Bob's your uncle.

I dry shaved a lot in the field in the army. It worked just fine.

[firiki]

I've tried dry shaving -using just water or right after the shower. Doesn't work for me, but it's good having previous experience if I ever had to do it again.

One reason I wouldn't try this Crazor-thing is that a triple set of blades only results in giving my skin a lot of unnecessary irritations. I've tried some razors over time and I keep coming back to a simple, one blade, disposable BIC that lasts me about ten times.

I've been flirting with the idea of getting me a straight razor for a few years but if I'm being honest I don't think I'm brave enough to put one on my neck 

[Syph007]

I dont enjoy a dry shave but it works in a pinch.  If Im out of shaving cream ive often used a bar of regular hand soap though.

  Isn't Carzor a much more palatable name for such product?

  Crazor reminds me of Crazy Razor as in Sweeney Todd Cut Throat Razor, but Carzor reminds me of card razor (although cardzor would sound better IMO)...

[J-sews]

I think the actual name is Carzor. (card+razor) Whoever did the promo spot on that web page must have misspelled it.
