The scallops on the spine was what I was thinking, just don't know Ebros well enough( at all really) to know if that was unusual or not. Also, didn't want to spoil everyone else's fun figuring it out.

Nice job, and a cool and different razor.
I notice that on all of your restores the blade and tang are nice and clean and the stamp is nice and dark. How do you get the stamp nice and dark.

Excellent work. I like it!

Beautiful job. Is the back worked on one side only. never seen that. enjoy

An odd razor indeed.

Glen, what grit do you stop at on the buffers to produce your wonderful satin finishes? I can't ever get mine to look as nice as yours

@rezdog
Keeping the stamps deep and dark, is mostly a result of how deep the stamps were to begin with, you only have so much control over a restoration.. You have seen this statement from me very often "Murphy's law of Restore says that the Pitting will inevitably be just deeper then the etch" you have the control in your hands to how deep you are going to dig down..

@sdj214
It is a combination actually
A really good Satin finish is brought back down, not how high do you go..
To get that finish you have to go higher and better then you are targeting, then come back down to the finish you are seeking..

Im trying this on a Morley you gave advice honing on. Just wondering for the final satin finish do you go by hand/machine or cutting compound on a slow buffing wheel? Went up to 1200 wet and dry then hand sand at 400 but its not a nice looking finishing.
