Restored and shave ready, just I small crack in the blade.
It'll hone out hey LOL
Pity Nice scales but
Ya see, that is the hardest part of doing that resto is to get that crack to come out just right. They are tricky little boogers that stubbornly resist being fully restored.

Would brazing help?:rofl2:
Can a razor still be "shave ready" with a hairline crack going all the way to the shaving edge? Looking at the Ebay closeups, it looks like the crack disrupts the consistency of the bevel. How could that be "shave ready"?
Short answer, no.Quote:

I may be missing something but from what I see if that is a small crack then the grand canyon is a little ditchQuote:
