Just received this lovely old 'TEMPERD STEEL' razor. It's a future restoration project but before putting in any work, I wanted to make sure it would take an edge. Took a bit of work to get through some bad, crumbly steel but looks good now. Shave with it tonight and see how she goes.

It’s a nice old razor with good scales and great collars.

I must have rocks in my head....
Attachment 335521
ESPECIALLY since I already have rocks I am in the process of lapping and finishing right now. But I had someone make me an offer I couldn't refuse on this nephrite stone and since I love the one that I've got so much I couldn't pass it up. Oh well, this one will just have to sit on the back burner for a while.

Tis a pretty rock Paul.
Hope it works in the collection.

Thanks Mike. I have high hopes. This one looks like it could be near gem quality. It's kind of certain amount of translucence to it.

Not that it matters because I'm not going to make jewelry out of it or anything. Especially not anytime soon. I have a couple of rocks that I'm really excited about that I'm trying to figure out. More on that later.

You could always cut it into some jewelry.

Maybe. I'm just a little booked in the hobby department these days.
