Puma Friseur Freund No.1
Hi.
I came across this lovely, small Puma Friseur Freund No.1 in pitty condition. Few large chips on the blade and some nasty, black pitting.
Before:
After some work:

good job, looks like you reshaped the heal a little to accommodate the newly narrowed blade width, thats something that can be easy to overlook.

Awesome work. I wouldn't have looked twice at something with chipping that bad. If I hadn't seen the before photos I would never have guessed. I'll have to keep an open mind on similar razors in the future.

Beautiful save. How does she shave? I have had several Pumas and loved them all.

Haven't honed it yet. Will do that today. Pitting on that razor was very interesting. It remind me that i saw similiar on some swedish razors. Just like borer bug tunnels. .

Stunning save on a razor I would have assumed to be a lost cause! Very nicely done, really appreciate seeing work like this. What method do you use for narrowing the blade width?

Well saved Maciek. Like Hart I wouldn't have looked twice at one like that. Makes me want to go back and look at some of my rejects - if only

Nicely done,
this inspires me, like many I probably wouldn't even bother buying a chipped razor like that, but seeing your results, kudos!
