    Default Robuso 7/7 Solingen M. I. Germany

    I found this Robuso 7/7 in a shop today.
    I think I can work the two nicks out without
    doing too much harm. I need the practice
    on the hones too.

    There is a bit of rust on the spine that I can
    rub off with an eraser. The scales are a little loose
    but for the price I just had to have it.

    That is a great looking blade and the scales are great. You should have no problem getting the nicks out of the blade. Great find!!

    Very nice razor! Looks like it's in pretty good shape, aside from the nicks.

    Very nice razor with exceptional scales. I have a Robuso myself and it's a good shaver.

    Do a search for toghtening up pins (probably in the Wiki, too), it's an easy fix, and well worthwhile for such a beauty as that!

    Thanks, I will look for ways to tighten up the scales...

    One of the things that caught my eye is the size
    of the blade. It is a BIG un. Here is a pix with a Dovo (5/8) for
    comparison. It is also a better view of the dings I need to
    grind out on the hone.
