    Looks really good, my only concern would be that the pivot pin looks to be a little high in the scales & may not have enough "meat" around the pin...otherwise I think you did a great job on...well, all of it! Best part is that you saved a razor that most thought was trash and by your hands it's one that you can shave proudly with. Atta boy!

    Paco, that is some fine work you've done on that razor! I'd be proud to have a shaver like that in my line up. Thanks for sharing your work.

    Warm regards,

    Larry

    Yea, I dot a little carried away with the sanding drum and cut it down too much.

    Ditto ! Nice job.
    Maybe a smaller washer at the pivot

    Nothing short of a spectacular restoration.
    BTW, I really like the shape of the point at seen in THIS PHOTO. I just think it looks classy.

    Well, in either case, it's a rockin' point. If you're ever doing another restoration and find yourself thinking, "What should I do with the point?" Consider this. Once again, great job.
