    Default Japanese SRC restore

    This one got a full treatment.
    The blade had some corrosion spotting that I cleaned up. The original scales had a chip right behind the wedge , it was too big to try and remove without making the scales look weird. I made a new set contoured them and transferred the overlay. For the scales I used Lava Flow kirinite, red acrylic wedge, brass pins and stainless washers.

    That's a very nice razor and some really beautiful scales. You are doing some amazing things with kirinite. I've been trying to resist but I can see now that I have to try it. Sigh, here comes yet another addiction.

    What a great combination--those scales fit the razor perfectly. I really like this restore.

    Good looking razor Stefan. Do you know what steel they use ?
    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

    Oz I do not know what steel was used, but it honed super easy and is one of those "magic" edges that some razors take.
