Thanked: 0Ahhhh of course. I didn't know the handle was critical. I thought it was used exclusively to protect the blade and other items FROM the blade. From the videos i've seen the "handle" wasn't used while shaving. I failed to realize it may be used for stroping or honing (things I know little about) However I was able to get the idea of a hone with some success without using the handles.
The photo I have indexed was pre-repairs. I am attaching more showing the repair job. However I am concerned if the repair work will hold while stroping.
Bottom line is.. I know this is an old razor. But IF it is nostalgic being a fairly demanded vintage blade I would be more intrigued getting it re-conditioned and back to use as I like old quality items but if it's just an old junky razor why waste 15 bucks on getting it honed.
By the way what is it made out of ?
