Well, That's just GREAT! Nice save . Proper and clean, too. Bet it shaves the part as well. All with a Dremel!
Whatsay, Dremel-haters? An excellent tool in the right hands."Don't be stubborn. You are missing out."
I rest my case.

I'm all for tasteful patina in some cases, and in others (as with this razor), I think that a mirror-polished blade with some residual pitting and other obvious scars of age looks just as good!
