    Default Breidora

    This was the state when I receibed it. There is some pitting on the blade.



    This is the state now










    Two months ago I buy this breidora straight razor for 35USD. But when it arrived I found that had some pitting on the blade, nothing too serious. I sanded the blade with grain from 400-1000 Now, after using polishing pastes, it's shining like a mirror, at least in the majority

    Now has a very good edge (the hair is cut in the air, like few I've seen) I believe, this Breidohr Johann was very good and also the scales of this one are nice

    What do you think, have I made a good buy?

    Regards,

    Juan.

    Beautiful Breidora - Breidohr razors are very good performers and this a fine example. Nice work!

    A good buy and a nice job on the restoration.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Nice job. Love the tortoiseshell look.
