    Cheers Bob!
    I do a lot of work on knives but never attempted to restored a razor before.
    I'm chuffed with how it turned out.

    If anyone can tell me more about this razor I'd appreciate it.
    Looking at prices for J A Henckels razors I think I may have got a reasonable deal after all (holocaust missing)

    PS
    the seller just told me he found 2 J A Henckels razors after rummaging in the attic
    one has the 1810 and the other the 1850 mark
    pics to follow...

    Thx. I wish the pics showed how nice it really looks. They don't do it justice.

    I started off with 320 grit but soon realized I'd spend days at it at that pace.
    The 80 did the hard work pretty quick leaving quite deep scratches.
    At that stage I thought I might have ruined the it but they came out after some elbow grease.
    I used Purol Universal metal polish paste on a cloth for the final finish.
