Thread: Sta-Sharp

I took a chance on this one & stole it because everyone thought the edge was trashed! It was rusty along the edge as you can see in the eBay pics. After it got here today, I immediately hit it with 0000 steel wool & it came right off!!!!! The first three pics are eBay pics & the other three are after I hit it with the steel wool. Ohhhhh wait until I polish this baby with my Dremel!!!

Here's what it looks like after putting the Dremel to it once..............It might need another round. To the hones next!

Looks great. You did a fine job on the cleanup. The edge looks even and smooth. Should be an easy job to set the bevel and hone. You've rescued another diamond from the rough. Job Well Done

How is the bevel set?

I haven't done that yet. I may start on that in a little bit with my 1k Chosera & a piece of tape on the spine.
I have a Craftsman almost identical to it!

Thanks Substance! The Dremel can be a good, useful tool but needs experience & I use it a lot for cleaning up razors. It works out very well. At first before I bid on that Sta-Sharp, I kept looking at it over & over again deciding whether to bid on it or not. I finally said screw it & bid! When I got it & the rust came right off with the steel wool, I just had a big grin on my face!!!!! I was so glad i bid on it!

When I first joined SRP, I bought Lynn's dvd & he shows how to use a Dremel on a razor the right way & from then on, I bought one & started out little by little using what he said to use, Maas polish & it has worked out great! Lynn gets all the credit here!
