I thought I would leave the satin finish instead of polishing....
Interesting razor! Glad they got the spelling right on the scales!
Yea, the spelling on the box is off a touch...:shrug:
Maybe more valuable? Like stamps or coins with flaws!
By the way, I love Paco Rabanne. Great pics too.

I love everything you didn't do. It still has a nice patina, and i bet shaves well!
I'm working on honing it now. That's why I bought it. It was only $37 USD. It had no bevel, and several small chips, so this will be my first bevel to finish hone job. Very exciting!Quote:

Shave test is coming...
Looks good to me! Congrats
Very nice clean up
Your edge looks like very even frosting and definitely looks the part
But only the test will tell the truth
Very nice score Dave!!!!
The shave test was magnificent. I'm very proud of the result! It is wonderfully satisfying to hone your own...
Dave, you have made remarkable progress in little time!Quote:

Yes I agree it is very satisfying and dave great jobQuote:

So the threads and vids here about the rolling x stroke helped me finish this blade, and have it sharp even out to the toe.Quote:

Also Congratulations on your honing! :tu
It looks like my counsel may have been helpful. Counsel is one thing but execution is what matters!
Good Job! Keep at it!
