I purchased my first WB and I cant wait to shave with it! :)
However, I need to get the blade honed and a very small chip on the toe of the blade repaired. I was thinking about getting this one professionally restored...blade cleaned up, and new custom bone scales but after cleaning it up with some Maas, I think I'll just get it shave ready and try it out for awhile. The scale are a little chewed up but not too bad yet. I know one of the scale is cracked, but I like the original scales (even though they are a little bitten) and I don't think the cracked scale will matter much from a performance standpoint.....Thoughts??
