First restored batch, weeeee!
Quite recently I got a batch of five straights, dirt cheap (€15!!!), since the seller considered them rubbish and sold them as such.
. I got them to see if I could restore them somewhat:
#1 and #4 were, as you can tell, beyond repair, keeping the scales.
#2 Turned out to be a 5/8 C.V. Heljestrand MK 31! Worried about the rust near the edge though, hoping it doesn't go too deep.
#3 Robert Dodge(')s Universally Approved Sheffield Razor, 5/8 and looks like an uneven concave or a muck-up regrind. Still, the steel looks perfectly salvagable.
#5 C.W. Dahlgren Eskilstuna Garanti Prisbelönt 1878.81, 5/8 1/4 hollow with a French point, apart from some staining and minor pitting the cleanest in the lot.
