Very nice restore. Don't worry that it is a #12 it will grow on you and you'll find yourself reaching for it without giving it a thought.

Man, that would have taken more than a little elbow grease. Rust like that is hard work.
Great save.
I really dig matt black scales too.

Great work! I would not have touched that with my sandpaper... clearly worth the effort. I really like the shape and materials you used for the scales, too... very nice!

Two thumbs up for Craig. Those are mighty fine shavers for their size.
