    Default First Sheffield Razor

    So today my wife and I went to the Rose Bowl Flea Market at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, CA to hunt down a new dresser for the bedroom (which was a success). Amidst a bunch of WWI and WWII knives lied a Frederick Reynolds straight in pretty good condition. Needless to say I bought it and brought it home to give it a dose of some metal polish to remove some light surface rust. I think I'm going to leave it with the patina look and get rescale it in Ziricote wood. Just need to fix the tiniest chip in the blade, and it should easily be a great shaver. Can anyone recommend a person or place to go in L.A. that will be able to hone it up for me? I'm not having luck with my antique finds, and I'd love to watch someone else do it and learn from the experience. Pics below of course:
