FWE resto
I've had three of these in over the past 2 weeks. Two of them belong to the same guy and they are nearly twins both being in white scales.
This was the worst of the two with some rust/pitting on the blade as well as the shafts. I removed what I could, polished the blade as factory along with re bluing the shaft.
I made tiny washers as seen on the original and put her back together again.
On the secshond I may talk the owner into letting me rescale it with an almost orangeish (?) translucent scale that I had seen on another FWE that with the darkness of the blued shaft, the shine of the bolsters and blade looked just stunning.
Lets see how that one will go
Worst comes to worst I have some razors that may fall prey to getting new scales in this style.
