    I have so many that have been works in progress for a very long time. I applaud your ability to start, finish and sell. I'm really slow at restores. I also often have many on the go at one time
    It's not what you know, it's who you take fishing!

    Well, if anything you could just have another daily shaver.

    maybe. I want to try and have this hobby pay for itself going forward so I have to sell some eventually. I just hope this isn't the best shaver I have otherwise I'll be really sad to sell it.

    nice save
    don’t judge it on a business decision, judge it fairly on how it shaves you may end up keeping it and getting another to sell off it won’t be the first time
    you know you are really gonna like it when it's shave tested,
    that’s a nice theory “a hobby that pays for itself” LOL
    the letting go bit might be the reason I now have 45 Str8s as I have a similar intention to sell some eventually but I like them all & the more I have put into getting them back on track to find they're a great shaver makes it even harder
    Think I am screwed

    I have a 5/8" true spike pointed blade that if it back chats & bites me again on the next rotation, might go on the chopping block LOL

    I have a red imp 133 the larger spike point that I have been contemplating putting out to the bay. I haven't shaved with it yet where there wasn't a styptic pencil involved. I think it's part vampire cuz it's always going for my jugular.

    So I finished her today. What a sweet shaver. There are a couple beauty marks that I just couldn't get rid of but all in all I feel it turned out well. What do y'all think.
