first resore attempt
Here are some photos of two razors i am trying to restore. I recently gave them a bit of a polish to get the years of dirt off them. They were a mess when i got them. I have been using Norton 240 up until now, should i keep on with that or move to 320 now?
The black razor is a Johnathen Crooks? from England as far as i can make out, it has hollow full ground stamped on it which i would like to keep on the blade if i can. The cream one has no identifying features so i am wondering if i just keep working on it, get it shave ready and sell it on our local auction site? I am sorry I am not too good at taking photos.

If I were you, I would first polish them for quite a while and see how I'd like the result after that. If you're not satisfied, look up the hand sanding tips, there's a whole lot of info about that.

FIRST... Make SURE you can get them sharp first!
Learned that lesson the HARD WAY!
Then continue to polish them up...
