So I won this blade on e-bay for about $11, and am curious about W&B razors - history, how old this might be, etc.



At any rate, I received it a few days ago and aside from some corrosion that I've made some progress on (it will take some time to get it back to pristine shininess), a few hundred passes on my Dovo paddle strop has turned it into a great shaver. I obtained it to be an inexpensive travel razor that if I lost it, I wouldn't be too upset. Now I'm not so sure if I want to use it for that
