Sure, it's not perfect, but not every razor needs to be completely lacking in character! It looks like you did a very nice job.

you did a good job on that razor, its got a new life, and tbh i like the fact that theres still a little tarnish i think it adds character, and makes it look loved

Looks a vast improvement & most importantly you didn't bust it

Thanked: 993 looks good
I'd say it came out looking great. I think it's a nice look to leave some character on a blade. Congrats.

Thank you all for the comments on the razor.
I shaved with her last night and wow, super smooth shave, very sharp.
It's the smallest blade I've shaved with and it was a little different, but it made my upper lip much easier, haha.
I used 3M starting with 60 girt, then 120, 320, 400, 600, 800, 1000, 2000, then mass with a gun polishing cloth.
