My first restore
I came across a completely rusted blade off eBay, but I forgot to take pics before I started. I thought it would be unsalvageable, but it turned out nicer than I expected. So critique it so I can see where I need to improve.

BTW, does anyone know a estimate on when this razor was made?

Looks great did rescale her?

I Like the cocobolo Wood

Yeah I made the scales. I bought a lot purchase off eBay and there where 3 blades without scales in there along with a DE and a couple of complete straights. I am polishing on a John s. Holister 5/8 wedge now. It doesn't center in the scales, so I guess my learning curve is fixin to get steeper.

Greta work on the razor and scales. The spacer looks like it fits great. Thanks for saving this piece of history.
