    One of my favorite vintage models. Not pretty but very good shavers and easy to hone.

    Yes, I suppose the precursor to the 'American Grind' wedge. Lots followed and even German grinders got in on it.
    Pure function. I just love them. This one found it's way into my pile on condition.
    I might just bid on it myself! Send the dough to Movember!

    They are yellowish-green. I see a bit of shrinkage going by the wedge, but no signs of warpage nor rot.
    All oxidation is indeed over the scale line and is minimal.
    In fact, there was a thick coat of dried oil/grease before wiping down with WD.
    Some of what is seen is that.
    Factory grinding striations are evident over the whole blade.
