Was waiting for the right moment:)
Real sorry to see that, lovely looking razor indeed. Gotta say I agree with gssixgun. Get honing, breathe some life back into it and use it the way it was intended and make it proud again. If I made that razor all those years back and knew of it's fate it would bring a tear to my eye!
Three possibilities here: one-the edge was rusted and fell off, two-it's been banging around in the box and got rough treatment and damaged the edge or three-it was defective to begin with maybe a factory second.
Either way when you try and rehone it you'll find out.
I say it was self inflicted due to lack of use. Poor razor, born to shave but confined in a box. Not even in a display case, damn shame for such a fine razor.
If you get it fixed use it! :rant:
:D
Sorry to hear; it makes my heart ache.
And prompted me to decide to hone and use my only NOS razor!
