Thread: Polishing a razor

I am noticing one of my razor is tarnishing. I had a mirror finish originally, but it's becoming duller and darker.

Do you guys polish your straights periodically to keep them shiny or do you just let them dull and tarnish?

I would like to maintain this blade like new. A lot of common polishes will leave scratches and I want to avoid that.

Anyone have a suggestion for a polish that will keep the mirror finish on my straight?

Also, will I be in danger of dulling the blade if I polish?

Thanks
