Heirloom Sears Vintage Restore, not working ?????
Now I finished this Vintage style restore up a few hours ago and got the pics taken...
The Razor is stamped Sears "Self Honing" Pat. no 692324
and on the top of the spine Sears 1865..
I polished it up, and cleaned it up, and took it back to as close to original as I could manage... It has a rather unique grind I have only seen on a few razors...
Here is the problem guys, it obviously doesn't work, I took the pics and then went back out to the shop to finish more razors.. I came back in after 3 good hours and checked the razor... Well heck nothing happened, I even left it sitting on top of the Coticule but still nothing ... It has definitely not honed itself at all, not even a little bit... I looked for some kind of switch, but again nothing !!!!
I am just not sure how this razor is supposed to work... Does any one have one of these that works that could give me some tips on how to get the self-honing option turned on????
If worse comes to worse I guess I can hone it the old fashioned way :( but I sure would like to get it working :) :)
