Thread: Thiers A.Gri//Olange - Restoration (pics attached)

I'm glad you like it. Thanks for the appreciations.

The handle is grenadille wood, but I cannot take the credit for it, since I didn't make it. I don't have the experience to make a nice handle like that, yet, so I preffered to buy it. It is this one: Spare parts : E-0024
I have no idea what the spacer is made of, but it looks like plastic to me.

The edge turned out nice, indeed. When I bought it, I wasn't really sure I can save it. It took me one weekend to bring the edge back and make it look as it is now, but i think it worth every minute and every cent I spent on it.
I like it very much, myself and also, it seems to be a rare blade, since no one here seem to have heard of it (and neither does Google), so I decided to keep it in my collection.

Well, I don't know what's the thing with these old razors, but they seem to shave better than the new ones... Or, at least, the ones I have. Maybe it has something to do with us, sharpening the blade from blunt to shave ready, rather than just touching the edge of a new razor, I don't know. Maybe.
Anyways, it is the best shaver I have until now. I judge the shaving quality by my skin reaction to afterhave, provided that everything else is pretty much the same. You know, when you put the aftershave on your face is that half of second when you feel your face is on fire? Well, it was nothing after shaving with this one. No burn, no pain... nothing. Very nice and smooth.
