Attachment 234727Attachment 234728 Saw this one and gave it try. With luck i won it and now the wait for delivery and anticipation of how it will really look has set in. The 5/8 i received last week is a good razor but it is light weigh compaired to a wedge or near wedge 6/8. I'll have to decided which to keep and which to pass alone. I believe this one will clean up good and should hone well. anyway i'll find out when it gets here.
Man, yer on a role eh!? Nice looking blade.
Nice score there. Beautiful lines and just has to be a keeper.
I really don't have the skills that some of the members have here but i believe that i can clean this one up so it will look presentable. One of these days i'll luck up and be able to own a real keeper like i've seen here on the forum.
That one you just posted is a REAL keeper. I'd hand polish the blade and scales with MOTHERS or similar, hone it, and enjoy it.Quote:

nice pick up. frederick reynolds right. it was on my watch list! i almost stole it from you. =]
i hope it cleans up real nice for you (he said a little jealously).
The razor arrived today and the little spots on it were just dirt. cleaned and polished up great. looking forward to honing and using.
If I had seen those I couldn't have resisted either! The diamond inlay is great:)
I got it honed today. i used the naniwa 1-3-5-8-12K SS hones and then finished with the suehiro 20K. Stropped on linen and then England bridel strop . Used SRP Sweet Patchouli soap and this razor shaved great. Very smooth and close. This one is indeed a keeper.
