Isn't the HR without the grooves/corrugations called mud razor? Or is the MR just the brown one

RR,
I am no expert, but as I understand it, the Mud Razor was a military overrun. It did not have the CBT of the old Hell Razor (the multiple "grooves/corrugations"), but it retained the narrow fuller down the center. I believe they were mostly, if not all, muddy brown. I have seen some in satin, but I suspect this was a later "spa treatment" from the Shop. As well, the handle scales were asymmetrical, which I don't think was the case on the HR.
Those in the know will correct me if I am wrong in whole or part.
Cheers
