    Default My Grandfather's Razor

    My father never used this, but grandfather did. I received two. The one here that's pictured and other where that has a large chunk missing out of the blade.

    I figure this was is around 1920's-40's??? Is that correct? I can only find the Hollow Ground, not extra hollow ground as this one is.

    Will it every be shiny or will it have that black look to it? I don't think it is supposed to be shiny silver.

    Other than a good honing and stropping before shaving, what needs to be done to this?

    I live in Columbia, SC..anyone you can recommend nearby for honing?
