Well the RWNN Razor gets a name now as I found it accidentally in Waits Compendium. It is the Daisy Safety Razor with a patent applied for in 1906 and issued in 1911. It takes some heavy modifying of a Gem blade by removing the spin and using metal nips to narrow the width of the blade to fit. Comes out a snug fit but usable as this is the 2nd time I've used this razor. Mine may be an earlier make of it as my box does not have the name on it under the picture as seen in Waits' picture. Nor does mine have the engraving of the name on it as can be seen comparing Waits' pics versus mine. Only engraving on mine is "PAT NOV 14,1911" If this was marketed for women, I see why it didn't last. It's an aggressive razor for sure and I can't pcture this doing well in the curve of their armpits. With care it can yield a smooth and comfortable shave which is what this morning was for me. Glad to have this piece of history in the den and need to do a video with it if I haven't yet..........Off to burn brush on the hillside today. Have a great day and weekend Everyone !

First 2 are Waits' Pictures and Second 2 are mine for comparison
