Roman Military Razor

[Robert]

Gold plating, however applied, on an object like your razor is VERY onlikely. And it would then have miraculousy disappeared completly, leaving a clean non-pattinated bronze object? Oh please :dizzy: Face it, the chances of it being a fake are good indeed. I am very eager to learn more, for if is not a fake, it is a new kind of razor, although I would still personaly put it in the "medical department".
