Proof that sometimes an auction with a misspelling and a blury photo can turn out ok. I have yet to do anything to this blade. She's a 5/8ths Shoulderless.

Very interesting video if you'd ask me, but it's to you to judge :w
Hello everyone, I am Robert.
I am very new to both Straight razor shaving, and Boker razors.
I bought this razor on Ebay, it was kind of a mess, lots of scratches, and would not cut paper let alone hair.
I figured worst case senerio, I had something to pratcice on.

I followed the instructions from what I learned here, on how to make this razor in to a shaver.
I reset the edge, honed from 4k-8k-12k, and stropped it...Now it is shave ready.
This is my finished Product.
Thats a real Beauty Robert welcome to the Brotherhood!!!!!
Great job Robert! Welcome aboard!!
