I like patina, but the line between it and rust can be blurry. Many people like pristine shiny razors, and I can see how receiving one that's a bit more rustic looking can be disappointing.

I quite like your Henckels. I'd be inclined to remove a little more of the patination around the pivot. I've never unpinned a razor, but if I had that razor I reckon it'd be the first one I unpinned. I'd polish it a little more and then maybe get some nice blue scales from the Revisor web site. I'd leave some of the patination, though, esp on the blade itself. Once you're finished restoring it a little, you have a few razors to compare it with as you set about honing it. That's what I'd do...
