Thanked: 13249Sorry, not a fan either...
Two reasons
One, you already did enough restoration to make it not a "Museum piece" so that sorta blows that theory..
Two, I would never ever in a million years stick a sharp piece of dirty rusty steel on my face, you guys are daredevils, to me, and I am not a germ-a-phobe, but that is like going to the doctor and having him use an old needle to give me a shot or going to the dentist and have him use antique tools with rust and patina in my mouth.. "Tattoos with a rusty needle done here"..
Nope I have seen what that black stuff looks like under magnification, and you all can have them all, I don't care what you guys say that thing would never shave my face... and please don't even tell me "But the edge is clean"
Hmmmmmm maybe that's why I started restoring razors in the first place
Now if it were going to go in a display that is different, but then I would have just stabilized it against further degradation and sealed it up to look at...
Hint: From a gun nut, you really don't want to store that in leather, more guns have been destroyed that way than any otherLast edited by gssixgun; 05-11-2011 at 04:14 PM.
