W&B American Razor Restore
Very nice razor tastefully appointed. I hope to get one of those one day, I really like the Eagle on the American Razor. I have a W&B in Glen's hands now I can't wait to see how it comes out. Enjoy your razor!
Aloha,
ED

Thanks all!
I didn't want it too flashy, just kept it clean and classy as it deserves.
