    Sweet restore! I picked up that same (almost) razor a couple of weeks ago and they are fantastic shavers.

    Hey Jemmo,
    Oz has passed on the link I see that should get you on your way. I started that particular blade quite a while ago and the details are a hit hazy
    I think I started around 320 grit wet n dry paper and worked through to either 1000 grit or 1200 grit. The finish I did just recently on the spine to remove the new rust was only 1000 grit.

    Excellent job. Looks good as new.
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    You can use water or WD40.
