.~.~.~> Means for holding or guiding sharpener {1}
DEFINITION
Classification: 30/35
(under subclass 34.05) Razors, in which the razor is combined with structure which permits or assists in sharpening of the blade.
(1) Note. Where the structural feature merely permits of the separate removal of the guard so that sharpening of the blade is possible, see this class, subclasses 51+; and where the mere action of shearing incidentally serves to sharpen and/or maintain the cutter in sharpened condition, see this class, subclass 43.
