Wosty's are very nice. I suppose not being as well known as some of the other makers makes them a somewhat underrated brand. If you can get the staining off without removing the etching, that would probably make a collector happy; I've not seen that etching before.

It makes me think about how awesome it would have been to visit Lilliput. That being said, looks like an awesome razor that should clean up nicely.

Get it, clean it, sharpen it, use it, you'll love it!!! It sharpens easily and seems to have a soft feel when it shaves.

Is it for you?
Do you want to repair it for sale?
My first feeling is that it is a good quality razor but the repair will need to be "good" and carefully done for sale. For personal use the repair is not quite so crucial and the razor will shave very well.
So, it depends on your intentions, but the razor is a little tired, but not yet tired for retirement.
