I shave with a str8 for over a year now, and theres nothing better. Im independent, and love the feeling of such virtuos materials as steel and wood. I bought an old razor in a vintage store a week ago in Lithuania, and it looks great, but has that black coating on it. I know its how it goes when its not used a long time, but I was hoping to shave with it one day. Are there any tips -mechanical, chemical ways of getting my razor to shine again? Its a ERN , WALD-GERMANY 20 razor if that is any tip of the type of steel they used.
Please help me out
