Notes[ | ]

  • (in Repentance) The item will cost 10 cents if found in a ShopShop

  • (except in Repentance) The invincibility frames allow Isaac to use Blood Donation MachineBlood Donation Machines and Devil BeggarDevil Beggars for free.

Synergies[ | ]

  • (in Repentance)Collectible Car Battery iconCar Battery: Dull Razor activates twice, triggering on-damage items twice.
