    Default Good Idea while Antique shopping for razors.

    I was at an Antique shop today and was trying to read the tang (Who Made it) on a straight razor. I think it is a Genco, but the Tang was hard to read because of the tarnish. I thought " Should have brought my polishing paste and a piece of cloth". So next time ya'll are out looking it might be a good idea to bring some paste and cloth to clear up the tang if it is tarnished and hard to read. It seems all my straights have had bad tarnish at the tang. Just a thought.
