W&B in Ocean Blue
Been awhile since I've posted any work here so here is one for your viewing.
It's a 13/16 Wade and Butcher in Ocean Blue Scales with a Faux Ivory Wedge and Brass Pins and Washers. I left a bit of the age on the Blade but am still debating Polishing it up and possibly re-pinning it in nickel rod. Thanks for Looking

"I can see clearly now the rain is gone"
Sorry it is what popped into my head when I saw it.
A very fresh and clean look on it
I think the Nickel rod would work really well it.It is just Whisker Whacking
Relax and Enjoy!

+1 to the Nickle Rod. I think it would "flow" better... If that makes sense?

Wow, that looks great! Just imagine shaving with that close to the beach either inside or out in the shade hearing the waves....then thinking "Oh my god!! will the salty air mess with my blade?" Lol

All razors should be done in clear acrylic and the more brass the better. :<0) Okay maybe not all, just all mine.

Nickel may take it up a notch. Patina is timeless and priceless!! It is character, history. Appeals to some but not to others. That is your choice!!
But, it is a beautiful restore!! Thanks for posting!!

I vote for the polish and nickel treatment. That finish would really suit those beautiful scales!
