    Cool Vintage Restore Boker Red Injun #101

    This is one I just finished up that will be heading home as soon as I hone it...Basically tried to bring it back to as close to the day it left the factory as I could get it...
    These Red Injun's are still one of my personal favorite shavers...

    I took some of the scales halfway through the process for this thread...

    Great Job Glen. Thank you for taking the time to post up the pics part way for me. The person I am getting my razors from has a Red Injun as well that is in my box to pick up over the coming weeks. It needed a little more work than what I picked up this week so I thought I would wait on that one

    beautiful work Glen!! I've been on the lookout for a good red injun to restore. They keep getting bought up a little to high for me. They must be good razors.

    I've never met a Boker that didn't take a very fine edge. That Red Injun looks as good as the day it was produced. Excellent brother.
