    Thank you very much . Old I can deal with, abuse is something else entirely. Especially when it's uncalled for.
    I still can't fathom this "work". My mind goes blank.

    Astonished...Amazed...In awe! That's what I'm feeling!

    Who would have believed that such a save was possible?!?

    Superb execution all around.
    When you are dead, you don't know that you are dead. It's difficult only for the others.
    It's the same when you are stupid.

    I wish I could take photos that well, let alone restorative work.

    I had a W&B that had the same marks, but I was thinking they were from a heavy slurry because they were only on the bottom half of the razor and they went in every direction. That one turned out fantastic.

    My client wondered too. I was able to approximate them with a coarse carborundum stone. Slightly different stone, a different speed/pressure but it's pretty close.

    Here is the one that I had. The scratches went every which way and I wouldn't have minded them if the entire blade was covered in them because in person it gave it a glitter, hazy type of effect that didn't look bad, but since it obscured part of the etch it wasn't the greatest look.

    I think these blades are from the same restorer/honemeister ! My he does beautiful work. His confidence seems to have grown with yours.

    Not to be rude but some people should be dope slapped.
