Hill "Blue Steel" refresh
This old girl was a bit tired. Needed a day at the spa. Can't reverse age, but she got a going over to bring her up to speed.
Didn't want to destroy the patina of her old "bones" in the form of scales so I took care of the scratches, etc. and they look period correct. Saved the patina at the same time. Nothing looks worse than a full on face lift on an aged razor. Same for the blade. Couldn't do a full on mirror finish to detract from what she is. A classy old gal.To me she still exudes a warmth that is fetching somehow.
First three are before, last three after. She looks about the same,, just refreshed!
