Russian Restore
Here are a few pics of my very first restore
A Russain Razor from about the 1920's..not sure exactly what make though..my russian friend couldn't make out the writing on the box. Anyhow, polished it up and clothed in acryllic with brass pins and nickel washers. Learned alot for my next one Any comments good or constructive would be appreciated And I would like to send out a huge thank you to all who posted in the wiki etc. that helped so much!

That looks really, really good.
mostly personal preference..but..next time, use a contrasting wedge..black acrylic wedge on this one really woulda popped!
Great job though. The blade looks ready to be used

Great job, you're a natural! Personaly I'd prefer a more toned down material for the scales but maybe I'm just boring
