Thread: First restore

On to the hones!!!

Better pictures will follow!



I am really happy with this razor, I have always wanted one with tortoise scales. I hope it is a good shaver as well!!
I think I am hooked on this razor restore thing!

That looks really great Jeff!

Great job! Looks super, like new. Faux tortoise from Mascraft?

This seller on the bay:

Cars, Automotive Misc. items in Spring Cleaning Midwest store on eBay!

very nice outcome, do you have a close up of the pins? what did you use other than brass rod?

Just the 1/16 brass rod and the small washers outside and the bigger ones inside near the tang from microfastener.

Bravo Jeff!! Beautifully done.

How long do you think you sanded each progression of grit?

Until the previous scratches were gone.

If you go too fast you will know. There will be heaver scratches that will not come out.
