Thread: Bengall in Glacier Blue Acrylic

This is the first restoration I've finished in a long time, I started working on this one over a year ago but never got around to finishing it.
I'd been saving this acrylic for a suitable blade, and decided this nice 6/8 Bengall would work well with it.
The blade was hand sanded to a near mirror finish, S/Steel washers on Nickle-Silver pins with a Corian wedge.
I just honed it, and its looking good, nice small even bevels and a wicked edge. Looking forward to the first shave.

Thanks

Very nice Baldy
good to see the bengall back in service
Love the wedge

Nice work baldy, they might be plain Jane looking razors but take a really good edge. A bit under rated down under, probably because there are so many of them.

That's bang-on, the corian wedge is very nice, subtle, what's the saying, "it's the tits"...great looking razor.

Gotta agree all my bengals are definately great shavers and as good as any others I have

Very nice. I really like the color of the scales. Light enough to not overpower the blade, but just enough to make it shine.

Wow looks superb, just had a look at my Bengall's and they need some work to bring them up to that quality of shine. I for one would really appreciate a breakdown of the stages you went through to get to that amazing finish on the blade. Hoping you can oblige.

great look all round, good stuff

Well done that is a beautiful razor.
The scales and wedge are something else, not to mention the mighty Bengall they house , best sheffields ever i reckon.
I have two as well that Oz done up for me one 5/8 and the other 7/8 both awesome shavers .
Congrats on yours , very different and very nice.
