    Very very very nice my friend. They're such attractive looking razors. That green drives me mad! Deals like that are what keeps us ebay razor junkies hot on the trail!

    This thread got my juices flowing and I just had to shave with one of my OD's today, excellent shave.

    Great find! Keep it in a nice environment. A lot of them have succumbed to cell-rot. I believe they can be somewhat preserved.
    One of the prettiest razors ever!

    Nice to know I can still get someone's juices flowing.

    Anyhoo, I just honed it up through Naniwa 12k, stropped it up about 150 good laps on my English Bridle, and hope to test-shave it tomorrow. Easiest honing razor I ever put to stones (but then, most of my others are smiling Sheffield wedges, most of which came with "issues"). This one still had the factory edge on it (though it was a little crumbly/oxidized).

    I hadn't shaved with this particular one in a while so all I did was touch it up on the 8K and stopped it on canvas 100x and 50 on the leather, fine shave.

    Issues start at the bevel. Clean and slather the scales with 3M wet type silicone and let soak for a few days. Wipe off gently.
    The green will really pop! Leave the blade open as storing, if possible! Not being negative, just take all the precautions!

    Good advice. I leave mine open and in a container with rice in it to keep moisture away. I also store them in a cool cabinet away from any UV light and condensation.

    Yes, and most important, air exchange/circulation!
