    3850 Bravo! So what if you (or I) aren't pros at it. You have a wonderful shaver now & rescued it from rust oblivion. 'Looks like a decent cleanup. I'm guessing that leaving the texture on the face(s) was intentional - I do that on some also. Not insignificant is that its a heavy sheffield - which often takes alot of restorative grinding before you can set a bevel. I'll bet you worked pretty hard on this one.

    Its almost like shaving w/ the first edge you successfully honed - just a wonderful feeling. 'Hope you're savoring this - you have every right to. Enjoy this one and each one thereafter.

    Anytime you can put a vintage razor back on the line & get a shave from it, then it's a beautiful thing.
    That razor has a place of pride in anyone's collection.
    Thank you for sharing it.
