Thanks, I threw it on the buffer really quick to see how deep the rust might have been. Not bad at all

Nice looking razor. I've seen decorated scales like that go for big $$ on ebay.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Very nice razor, and quite easy to date. From Goins':
SALIM ELIAS & T. ABDOO C.1903-1905. Founded by Salim Elias, and was at No. 69 Washington Street, New York City. By 1903, the firm had moved to 81 Washington, and Tony Abdoo was a partner. Both of these men were citizens of Turkey, and imported their goods, mainly razors.

Hmmmm, I might have to put my two decorated scaled razors up there than. I'm torn between really shinning this up or leaving it like it is. I'm leaning towards leaving it and honing it up.
