    Default The Electric Razor (Solingen) 5/8

    This one was pretty beaten (bought it since I drove to the seller that contacted me and since I was there I bought it anyways) , wasn't sure what's going to come out , scales are bloodwood, wedge white micarta, oil finish, "flowery" washers and inox torx screws, thank you for watching

    before




    after

    Wow!

    That's a gorgeous blade!

    Needless to say I'm shocked seeing the razor in it's first state transformed into a excellent looking blade.

    Bloodwood, first time I've seen it and I really like it...

    Congrats!

    Wow! Hard to believe that's the same blade. And good job on the scales, very elegant.

    Cheers.

    Very nice save! I agree with Phrank...fantastic job based on the beginning condition of this blade. Love the color of those scales!

    You now have the prototype PUMA. The Electric Razor Co was bought by the group that formed PUMA!

    @Geezer: thanks for this info, I didn't know that, did some search but nothing much about it, partially due to the name and "contamination" with the electric machine razors... do you have any more information about it?

    Great work - very impressed that you were able to keep the markings on the tang so crisp...
