Thread: Wosty on the Bay

This is a great looking razor, but an unfortunate bit of rust in an unfortunate place. Anyone think that could be removed or at least polished to look nice without destroying that great etching? Never had a blade with that kind of etching before...

it is nice, but rust like that on the edge would worry me, who know's how deep it goes. That's what I hate about Ebay. You can't really tell. I didn't look, but do they accept returns? Talk to the buyer and ask them, Actually, everytime I've done that, they tell me they know nothing about razors, but most will take a return back..Of course Paypal is good about getting your money back too. I had rust like that on the edge of a duck one time, didn't look bad at first, untill I put it under the loupe. The pitting was very bad, The blade would have been like 3/8th's when I got done with it...
