    Default Old Razor Restore

    I got this one from French Ebay.
    I always wanted to try super old straight razors from 1700 or 1800.
    On razor it say "Nizerolle" quick search on google showed that is a very small town in France.
    I dont know exact date on this one but probably late 1700 or early 1800 ?
    I will like to have your opinion on that ??

    Instead of polish it up, i decided just to darken it with some Oxal acid to preserve that old look and protect it from rusting more.
    For Scales i kept original design and made them from Bog Oak, ancient wood for ancient razor ) with brass spacer and pins.
    I am very happy how it turned out !!
