Gents,

I'm half tempted to bid on one of the two razors below. Granted they are not shave ready but do they appear like they could be sharpened to be so? The first is a Boker Edelweiss currently at $35 USD. I'm guessing it'll go for more. The second is a Wade & Butcher Special starting at $25 USD. Shipping will tack on another $13 USD.

Both have a more pointy toe than I think I'd like for a first razor, but both appear that they could be made nice again. If I do end up with one, what are some of the risks with buffing the steel?
