    Default Check out the new slicer!

    The wife surprised me for our anniversary. :-) Says she picked it up at an antique shop for about $30. I've always wanted a W/B, and now I got one!

    Congratulations on your anniversary and the chopper. You know you should send the wife out hunting razors more often.

    That's in super condition $30 dollars absolutely mind boggling and unbelievable great find.

    Thanks Everyone! So my next question, I want to restore it a bit and take it to the buffing wheel. However, I really don't want to mess up the etching. Because there's almost no pitting at all, I was thinking of just starting with some jeweler's rouge. Do you think that would leave the etching alone? I doesn't even look like it was hardly stamped at all. Any recommendations?

    If it were mine I would not take it near a buffing wheel ! Perhaps a hand polishing with MAAS or White Diamond polish and neatsfoot oil soak on the scales.
