Amazing restoration. Glad to see this example be brought back from the dead. I hope it's a great shaver when finished.

I think the frown has been working itself out during the polishing. It is hardly there anymore.
It's not much of a frown might just be a play of light when I looked at it that made it look deeper for me to ask.
Agree with Glen nothing major & even I (with my very limited skills) have honed a minor chip out that looked deeper than that frown with out breadknifing it first.
it's still looking great & can't wait to see the new horn on it when it is done.

Remember to post a before and after picture. Gotta love a razor with character. Somewhere in the future I want to try and restore a blade like this. Right now my focus is trying not to see the ER using one!
Plenty of before pics at the beginning of the thread, but I'll post a side-by-side when done.
