    Default Boker clean up

    This belonged to the clients Grandfather. The Ivory tang , as well as the scales cleaned up OK, but some staining remained. I can only push them so far. The tip of the blade was broken so I reground it and created a new one following the old style with the barbers notch.
    The little flower in the center of the blade next to the edge is very cool.

    Great work!!! But, by now I would expect nothing less than the best from you. I love seeing your posts and your magic with razor restorations. Keep them coming!

    I find this blade interesting because of the etching right near the edge but it doesn't look like it is that way due to honing. Very neat!

    Good job saving that classic razor. If I were the client I would be very happy.
