What was Ezekiel told to do using a blade as a barber's razor (Ezekiel 5:1)?

Answer: Shave his head and beard

He was to shave his head and beard, weigh the hair, and burn a third, strike a third with the sword, and scatter a third to the wind.

““As for you, son of man, take a sharp sword, use it as a barber’s razor, and shave your head and beard. Then take a set of scales and divide the hair.”— Ezekiel 5:1 (BSB)
