Sweeeeeeeet find. Unfortunately, trynig to clean the front will take that frosting right off. Much like gold wash, it's very fragile.

That frosted front is very delicate. I wonder though if a tumbler might be able to retain it?

Lovely, and properly honed will make a GREAT shaver. If it were mine I would give it a minimal cleaning and have it honed with tape to protect the spine of that nice blade. The scales look like they have no cracks or wormbites, so are good to go, with a little light cleaning. Seldom seen in horn scales of that age.

I have a similar J Elliott blade. The tumbler w/walnut shells removed most of the frost. It's still there but very very faint. I'd love to know how to save it if anyone knows. Originally Posted by Utopian
