Old Razor - New To SRP & Shaving
I was going to post this in the Newbie section, but I wanted an opinions from the regulars on the brand and quality of the razor.
I'm new to straight edge shaving and my uncle was nice enough to find me a vintage razor from a widow he did some work for. (I believe those are his initals on the blade, but I'm not 100% sure)
Anyway it came in the original box and reads "Electric Cutlery Company Dept No 10 Newark NJ"
Questions are...
1. Is the brand any good? I didn't see it on the Quality Razor listing.
2. Does the condition look OK? Some rust on the inner handle.
3. If not, what needs to be done to restore it? Who do you recommend?
4. Good for a newbie?
If you have other thoughts feel free to include them. Thanks in advance. :-)
