    Default 7/8 Fromm #50 Red Head

    I found a lady that is letting me go through her late husbads collection and have been working on building up my collection. This razor was a little rusty and had some very small chips in edge but it cleaned up nice and is a great shaver. Name:  016.jpg

    if you don't mind sharing, what was your sandpaper progression on the blade? (assuming you handsanded, of course...)

    also, beautiful job, looks almost new!!

    Thank you, I was lucky with this razor and never touched it with sand paper just used mothers and alot of polishing by hand. I am posting a few more and had to use sandpaper on one and go from 320 to 2000 grit by hand but am not going to do that anymore. I need to get set up with wheels and greasless compound and I am going to ask Glen about what I need to get when I see him in Yakima. I hate to hand sand anything!
