Thread: Muller Hamburg Ring Value & restoration tips

That's a beautiful razor and in my opinion definitely worth restoring. The scales are a beautiful antique bone that seem to have aged and colored rather nicely. Congrats

Welcome to SRP, Gavin

That is a nice blade and not one to learn the ins and outs of restoration. I would send it out. JMO

@steel, @rolodave thanks

If anyone has any recomendations for a UK based restorer that would be really helpful.

Welcome to the forum. You have gotten great advice above from our members. That is indeed a sweet find and a good restorer will return it to it's former glory. Please do not think of doing a resotoration yourself.

Welcome to SRP. That is a beauty. I've only got one marked Hamburg Ring, and it is not a Muller, but what a great shaver. Going along with what everyone else said, that is too nice a razor to begin learning restoration. Either pick up some flea market, antique store, or ebay razors, and practice with them, or send it out.

Another option, the one that I usually take, is to get some 0000 steel wool, a bit of oil, and rub out the rusty area. Follow up with some metal polish on a paper towel. Do not unpin anything, and strop and shave. Assuming you are capable of honing that is. If not send it to Neil Miller and get him to give it a going over.
