Here are a couple of restored oldies
This is a Roberts Warranted that gssixgun (Glen) restored for me a while back.
Whenever I had it done, I had him make a set of scales, also in horn for a John Barber. Had those mounted a while back and just got around to taking a picture.

Excellent looking blades.
Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

Proving that age can be beautiful! The multicolored horn is amazing. Expanding on this a little, with these razors I can see some age in the blades. I like age. An analogy might be an older lady who has decided that getting old is a bad thing and goes down the slippery slope of cosmetic surgery, often in the process losing natural character in favor of a mask. Perhaps this is what is known as a buffer queen, I'm not really sure of the definition of one but it sounds like an obsessive need to remove any signs of age on the steel.
