Geo Wostenholm & Son Restore
I worked on another SR restore project yesterday. This was a Geo Wostenholm and Son, Sheffield England. The beautiful etching in the original photo disintegrated fairly quickly once I started trying to clean up the water staining. And yes, I was careful! So I decided to clean it down to a near mirror finish and have a plain blade. There must be some trick (which I obviously don't know) to clean up this type of fine etching on the blades. Still, I am not disappointed...I like a clean look. There was a dark stain on the scales that I could not remove as well. Again, this was done all by hand...no machines. I like the heft of this razor...feels good in my hand. Paid $20 CDN for this one.
