    If I did not have any experience restoring razors or honing, the only one I would consider is the Wade and Butchers Special. It would still need to be sent to somebody for honing.

    Looks like a good pair of choices to me. Let us know how you make out with the projects.

    Got to this late, but I would say #1 and #4 look salvageable. #2 and #3 would be good to practice restoration on , but will not be shave worthy without a LOT of work.

    My 2 cents, let us know what you buy!

    The older I get the more I realize how little I actually know.

    While looking for some pricing and seeing the relative prices for some similar blades, i happed upon this: Navalha Solingen J. A. Henckels No Estado - R$ 45,00 no MercadoLivre

    Thought it would be good to show some humor!
