Big difference. I see the same here when people ask him. Someone asks how do you get those scales so clear he doesnt say on it takes hours of elbow grease and work - the cop out answer, he says, i take 320 and sand them down more than you would ever think them i progressive polish them back. You have to take them down before you can make them clear again if that make sense.
    Im not sure what the underlying issues are here , obviously there are some but I think its a damn shame I cant see the rest of the razors he posted and would have loved to hear the answers to the slew of questions by members that would have followed. I am what I would call a rookie restorer, some may see me as more, I sure dont. I would have loved to have learned in this thread, instead i see a crap storm of underlying issue coming out. The airing of dirty laundry publicly that obviously should be handled privately. Not only staff but the admin of the forum. Sadly the BSD factor is in full effect. Wish I never read the thread.
    I am amazed at the troll effect that still comes out of the wood work here........

    Oy!
