Original source (English)

To dream of a razor, portends disagreements and contentions over troubles.

To cut yourself with one, denotes that you will be unlucky in some deal which you are about to make.

Fighting with a razor, foretells disappointing business, and that some one will keep you harassed almost beyond endurance.

A broken or rusty one, brings unavoidable distress.
