#15589 - Fancy Brass Multiple Blade Scarifier
This is a fancy brass multi-blade scarifier or "bleeder" used in the early to mid 1800s to cause thin superficial cuts in order "to bleed" a patient of the evil humours in the sick body. Fell out of practice mid 1800s. This has multiple fine blades that appear out the slits in the base when trigger is pulled. That way, the device cuts the patient, not the barber or doctor! NFS
