    Default What can you do with an $8 Razor?

    When I saw this razor I had to have it, especially for eight bucks! This time I took before pics. Pardon the crappy pictures, Jr wan't here to take them for me. Buffalo translucent scales, original pewter (?) spacer, nickel silver pins and stainless washers. Hope Jr likes the results. We usually work on these together but I couldn't wait to finish this one. It goes to the hones later this week. Hope you enjoy the results.

    Awesome work Joe! I really enjoy the restores that keep their vintage flavor. You have done that razor proud.

    Like the old Sonny Boy Williamson song .... Brought life back to the dead. I ain't even gonna kid ya and ask if you want to double your money.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Nice restoration job. You turned a plain Jane into a beautiful runway model. Congratulations!
