OK, so taking it under advisement, as promised. Mine is a wedge. Maybe it was a near wedge, but pretty much just a wedge now. The problem I see is that there is no protection between the thumb and...

Looks Nice Outback. Mine are not really in bad shape. I guess they are bug bites, or maybe some sort of rot. And, like I said, I have seen some of yall repair scales in really bad shape. Just...

With all due respect, some of yall are just nutty.

That said, I'll take it under advisement.

I got a mini bench top drill press this weekend. Since there was the one blade I could not open, I went ahead and removed those scales. The drill press worked like a dream. Not really much to...

I'll have to look again. I don't remember seeing a screw, but I don't remember what I had for dinner yesterday, either.

Picky Picky. Yeah, they all seem to have a bit of curvature when you look at them edge on. But I can't really feel it when I rub up the side. There are the two full hollows that you mentioned and...

Gotta give credit to my girlfriend for that one.

Oh, I totally get that. I was just playing around. Last thing I want to do is let them continue to deteriorate so I don't ruin them.

I will scrape with a razor, then use some 3M with a rag,...

But, I am not supposed to touch that one :).

Aggelos et al, here are the photos you requested. There is some serious corrosion in the middle of the blade. So, I guess the jury is out on whether it will shave, but I think it may not go to the...

Nice article. I do imagine the first step was hollow grinding by hand and then this guy made a machine to make it more precise and mass producable. But, a machine like that could have made hollow...

Awesome, thanks.

That's how I see it. I figure, since I only have the one face, I'll keep one of two and hand the rest of them off. I'm not much of a collector.

Hey Paul, well that makes two of us that didn't really know what they had. I have bookmarked the seller. What really appealed to me was the buy it now on all the boxes. I think it was $100 and...

OK, so really really don't screw up that one.

The orange one, while the scales are pretty, does seem to be the cheapest of the bunch. It just had that "not so quality" feel to it. My main...

I need to look up more about the shapes vs country, but I think I know which ones you mean.

Yeah, I will try the razor first and then 3M.

Hey, if you have any guidance on any that may not...

So, I did a thing. I saw this "buy it now" box for about $10 per razor. I knew some of them looked really old, so I figured I would do those last after I get a few more learnings under my belt. ...
