    Default Adoration de Lux

    Straight up restoration. Clean up the blade with the typical progression of sanding along with the scales and then polish.
    Nickle pins and SS washers put it all back together again.

    That is a slick looking razor.

    Are those 9s or 6s?

    I hate you. No, not really. You just make it look so darn easy. I'm jealous.

    im curious where and when that came about, because nowhere was it ever said in the scriptures that 666 was the "devils number." anyhow, that's a conversation for another time and a different place. these G & F adorations are nice shavers and this restore is very nicely done as usual! great job!

    Passing on a Readers Digest version related to me on another post in Hebrew numerology the number refers to "Nero Caesar"
    And in Revelations 13:18 it is calculated as the anti Christ.
    What this means isn't for me to decipher . Just passing it along.

    But thanks for the compliments.
