    Default IC Vincent Restoration

    When I first saw this blade I knew I had to have it! I love old French razors and the lines on this one are just beautiful. The blade hade some light pitting that came out with some elbow grease and 220 grit sand paper. The original bone wedge was badly discolored when I soaked the scales in neatsfood oil so it was replaced with camel bone. The original scales were nice and straight and cleaned up pretty well.

    Nice looking razor, like the shape of the heel. Great work.

    Lovely job on a great razor -- especially like that it's shoulderless with a thumb-notch.
