Maher & Grosh Rattler FBU
I've had this rattling around my " get to it " box for a while. Had a little time on my hands so out it came. Nothing fancy just a straight up restore of what was there. The blade came out nicely with the etch intact. Took it to near polished but polished the spine and shaft. Saving a bit of time I was able to refresh the scales as they were just in need of a little TLC. Trying to emulate the look I turned down #0 washers as their size is just too big to capture an " original " look.
A simple restore without bling gave me a respectable razor to put back in rotation. Just clean and neat always seems to work for me. And it shaves so well. I'm a happy guy!Last edited by mycarver; 10-22-2015 at 11:52 PM.
