Bartman Heirloom Restore
Interesting razor really
Before:

I am pretty positive the Scales were not original note the pins

Break Down
Full break down clean and polish
I was asked in another thread about popping pins..
Honestly better than 9/10 I use a HIGHLY polished set of Flush cutters the trick is the polish and working the pin slowly to keep from cracking or marring the scales
a 1/16" drift pin takes care of getting the pins out if you are careful"No amount of money spent on a Stone can ever replace the value of the time it takes learning to use it properly"

Thanks for sharing the process Glen. I’m sure many of us were anxious to see how this particular razor was going to turn out.
The final result is a beautiful razor that the owner will be proud to pass to the next generation of shavers in the family.David
