Hi folks,

I am newcomer to SRP. I currently frequent both /r/wicked_edge and badgerandblade and lurk here sometimes. I have been a DE shaver for 7 months. I have a SR that a friend gave me to practice on, and have SR shaved six or seven times now (I save it for my Saturday shave when I have a bit more time).

Anyways, I was blessed to receive my grandfather's SR, but need some help figuring out exactly what it is. Here are some pictures of it.

As you can see, on one side it says Blue Steel, and Hand Made on the other. It seems like rather generic labels, and I wasn't able to turn up much on google.

So here are my questions:

1. What the heck is this?
2. Does it look to be in good enough shape to restore/hone and use?

Cheers!
