You cheated! Your before pictures are taken on an old workbench and your after pics are on a nice white backdrop. I suspect different cameras too
But seriously, beautiful restore.

Beautiful work!! I would not have expected that old rusted blade to clean up at all, let alone to where you got it! Well done!

This is a wonderful resto, I love Japanese razors but am yet to own one. You basically brought the razor back from the dead, I suspect you may be a Necromancer =P

Very nice save! Those scales look almost like new, and the blade looked like it won't shave ever again
