Thread: Mmm My first French blade

VINTAGE MENS SHAVING FOLDING RAZOR W/ORIG CASE #28 - eBay (item 350338577226 end time Apr-09-10 02:14:42 PDT)

Hope it's as good as it looks I got an itchy trigger finger and had to buy it

Also noticed that Ebite changed my shipping address back to my old address for some reason... Naturally I didn't catch it till I hit confirm

Sent the seller emails on both Ebite and to their listed emails, hope it works

Looks like a lot of potential there Chef. Congrats and enjoy.
Do you plan to overhaul or just hone and see how she shaves?
Either way I am sure you will enjoy the feel of french steel

Cheers

Il ressemble un peu terni. J'espère que ça va nettoyer bien pour vous. Bon chance.

Um ok? I only know english... poorly

I'll see what it looks like when I get it in hand. At worst I'll have to dig out what my be a hard rust spot and rplace the scales if to far gone. At best I'll be able to clean up the scales and hone it I'd like to keep as much of the finish/patina as posable.

Like I said, see what happens when I get it in hand. I couldn't pass up the price Kind of high for my usual ebite buys but it looked like a worth risk

Best part - you don't even have to spend any more time to rust it
