    Default Restored Red Imp 132 (Before & After)

    Hey everyone. I am on my way to shaving for the first time with a straight razor. Picked up this razor for 30 bucks at an antique store.



    Just got this image sent back to me of the completed razor. Should have it soon. Also have a strop on the way as well.



    Brad at http://www.straightrazoredge.com/ did the work for me. Can't wait to see it in person.

    What's the difference between the 132 and the 133?

    The 132 is a wedge blade and the 133 is 9/16 half hollow blade I believe. You can check the wiki for blade types. Both of my imps were from ebay. I sent them off for a restore as well.

    "Looks sharp" as in "looks good"... Not as in "Looks sharp" as in "is sharp". I think you know what I am trying to say! It's Sharp looking. :/
