Two swedish razors
Hi all!
I've just finished my two first restorations, the razors are a DW Dahlgren and a CV Heljestrand Mk 30 both from Eskilstuna, Sweden. The Dahlgren is a 5-6/8 near wedge with a slightly smiling edge, probably bone scales. The Heljestrand is a 4-5/8 hollow grind with plastic scales.
When I got the Dahlgren it was dirty, and loose in the pivot. I took it apart and cleaned and polished it up, I kind of like the french styled scales so i sanded the scales in that shape and put it all together again.
When I got the Heljestrand it was dirty, the scales had a poorly fixed crack and the pivot was loose. I took it apart an cleaned and polished, repinned it with some scales i had lying around.
The razors have som spots and small pitting that I might polish out, don't know if it's worth the time..
Feel free to comment..
