    Default My first restore

    This is one of my favorite right now. This was my first eBay buy, I hand sanded from 150 grit through to 15000 grit. Made the scales and wedge from Purple Heart wood, natural stain and three coats of poly.

    Very nice job. I like the look you left on the blade. You have to wonder where that razor has been, who shaved with it, etc.? That is all part of the small defects that may still be found on the razor. Bravo!!

    Nice results, especially for your first one! I have my first restore still, I was originally going to sell it but I couldn't part with it.
