Projects from the Past Year
Over the past year I've taken a handful of beat-up flea market finds and have tried my hand at giving them a second chance at life. The advice and experience from the folks on SRP have been invaluable. The razors below have all been inexpensive 'experiments' providing a lot of learning - layout, stabilizing, poly, wax, and CA finishes, honing, and use. They are all now excellent shavers and I'm looking forward to many more projects.
