Thread: Prep for my new vintage razor!

Well, I just received my first "shave ready" razor in the mail, a vintage Dubl Duck Satinedge! Anticipation is killing me here but I have to wait until my Tony Miller strop comes before I can put it to good use. Blade is in great condition, and it certainly took some arm hairs off. Anyway, I recently saw a long thread concerning sterlization of used razors, and unfortunately it drifted off into a conversation about cooking, with no clear answer about the best approach. Personally I think a good soaking and/or wipe-down with rubbing alcohol/iso propyl should do the trick. Should it be blade only or scales as well?
Any thoughts?
