Very very nice work on both razors. I would be interested to know the process, unless it is a trade secret and I understand that, you used to fix the broken blade.

Thank you Bob.
It is no secret at all. I used silver solder paste (meltingpoint 650°C). The difficulty was not to harm the hardness of the blade. Therefore i covered it with wet tissues and added new water while the hole soldering process. To get enough heat i used a propan/oxygen burner with a very fin but hot flame. It was a hard task but it worked. Only the tang is soft, the blade itself did not loose any hardness.

Both are beautiful, but I think you may have outdone the original with your replica. Great lines!
