    Default H.Boker restore...

    Here is a new restore just completed and sent back to the owner. I had to use CA to rebuild the end of the scales near the pivot pin. I then used Envirotex Lite epoxy resin to protect and seal them. The pins are nickel/silver with stainless washers. I just hope the husband likes it!

    Very nicely done!! If the husband doesn't like it send it this way.

    Great job. That is a razor the husband should be very proud of. I know I would be.

    If the husband doesn't like it, the wife should use it on him! Great work!

    Great restore. I wonder if that epoxy could be used on the horn scales I have that hollowed areas? Anyway, beautiful razor. Top notch repair. Hope the husband appreciates the work and his wife's proactive gesture in getting it to you!

    Hi Guys,


    I am the lucky husband and future user of this razor. Thank you very much rrp for an outstanding job on the razor. It doesn't even look like the same thing I sent you. I can't wait to use it.
