    Default John Barber Razor dated 1824

    I have a very old razor that has been in my family from I believe new. It is engraved with the name of my 4th grand uncle and came to me in a Victorian toilet box that has been passed down through the generations.

    Ever since I have had it there has been the same amount of rust, and I have kept it in that state. However I think the rust could polish out to a degree. The handle is I believe ivory.

    I would appreciate any advice as to how best to restore it. I am not interested in restoring it for sale but as a keen family historian it is something that is wonderful to have.

    I am based in Hampshire, UK.

    Best wishes

    Graham Whitham
