Oh yeah, that's a sweet one!! Congrats!

Max sure does some very fine work, do you know if he reground it?

Yes, I believe he did to get the pitting out.

Rune, there was no other option as to reground the blade as to get the orange skin pitted look gone. I try to stay away from greaseless and will only use it as a last resort if everything else fails. Unfortunately I could not remove all the pitting especially towards the lower half of the blade's grind which was extremely thin. It would have bend like alu-foil if I tried to go any further. It's hard to notice on the untouched razor pics but the pitting, although shallow, was extremely bad. It looked like the razor was dumped in a glass full with acid.
