Looks like a mustache trimmer to me but with a new name. IMHO.

AMEN AMEN! I have one, & love it. It IS different that a razor, it will not cut your fabric! It has a guard so as to not cut fabric while ripping. It's so much faster than using a reg. seam ripper. I'm not saying you can throw away the seam ripper, because there are times you will use it..lolo But for ripping blocks apart, or long seams, it is a time, and stress saver..

Wonder if my husband would miss his mustache trimmer?

A lint roller is great for getting rid of those small threads. I learned that on a Craftsy class by Kimberly Einmo- she used it around her jelly rolls. Great idea!!
