Well, as long as the rust is not too bad and there are no cracks, you could still hone that down and maybe have a "save" :shrug:

Razor can be restored, it has a reserve on the width of the blade. The issue price of the razor. Above the handle, too, need to work or make a new one. But I would not buy it, there are places on the blade with a deep corrosion, the only reason I would not buy myself a razor.:thinking:
I have to agree with Hart on this one. The seller did not misrepresent the condition in any way, nor did they ask an absurd amount for it. He even stated the blade width when measured at the largest chunk of missing blade. That's right up there with that guy a few months back that went to great lengths to show the minor corrosion with the use of varied camera & lighting angles. I will, however, say that the current condition of the blade is a darn shame!
