Thread: Newbie w/ his grandfathers' razors

+1 I'm also jealous... I can't find any heirloom razors.
Send them for restoration and I recommend to start with some budget razor (I don't mean fake). Because it will be pity if something will happened with them, for example I managed to drop my first razor twice (don't ask how ))

...did you miss the 8 pictures he posted yesterday or are you suggesting he photograph his razors in more provocative positions?

They're very old razors, I think that might be beneath their dignity.

I was thinking about doing that, actually. Particularly since I don't actually know how much it's going to cost to restore them, so I don't know how long it will take to get it done.

The style/grind on that second razor is one of my favorites. Be sure to bring it along. Looking forward to meeting you.

Hi Eric and welcome to SRP. The fact that you have family steel available to you is outstanding. I personally have 6 of my great-grandfather's razors.

Take your time, relax and enjoy the ride.
