One other warning.

If you decide to go after the razors with some M*A*A*S or other plishing compound, be aware that all such treatments WILL REMOVE ANY GOLD WASH present on the razor.

It only takes a few rubs with the M*A*A*S and the gold is gone. Well, actually not gone, it will be on the polishing cloth. Same with Formula #7 and any other metal polishing compound.


M*A*A*S is nice for razors that have no gold wash. It cleans scales, blades, tangs, pins, even logos as long as they have no gold. Brass, plastic, celluloid all look great after a little treatment with M*A*A*S.

If you have rust spots on the inside of the scales, it will remove those too.
