To take a near perfect razor and give it back its original finish is more easily done, but to hand sand what is essentially a regrind I'm not sure is where I like to go. Just to the point where it is a rust free razor that looks good for a hundred and will be in service for a great amount of time to come seems to be my happy medium for the most part. It's ok to look older if you are a hundred years old.
