Thanked: 3Wade & Butcher Restoration (my third)
This is my third restoration project, the blade was heavily rusted and the horn scales had someone's initials carved in them. Originally I was going to just make new scales, but I decided to try to sand them down and refinish them. Using a belt sander, hand sanding, tripoli on the buffer and soaking in neatsfoot oil, I was able to save the scales and put it back together and they look just like new.
I honed and stropped the razor and I shave with about 6 straight razors and this is by far the best at shaving. It just glides through my beard and for some reason I have a lot of confidence with it and it feels much easier (and safer, if that makes any sense) to use than the others. I do not think I will ever part with it.
