Thread: What can be done for this pitting?

Can anything be done for this pitting in this razor I just received?
I don't think I can hand sand this pitting out without hours of work.
Leave it as is? Appreciate any feedback you all might have.

Thanks

Leave it alone,has already been sanded to near death.

Looks to me like it was just buffed not sanded.

Either way if the pits are as deep on the other side you may have a razor with holes in it when you get down far enough. Best case scenario if you do sand them out is that they will be replaced with smooth depressions which you will still be able to see plain as day. Then you have to consider the blade might crack because it is so thin if it even hones right after all that. Sorry, thinking and typing again. The short version from what I can see is , live with it or pass it on.

Thanks guys. Guess I will just live with it or sell it again.

some form of abrasive was used,using a buffing wheel with a high grit compound is rotory sanding.

What do the scales look like ????

Because that looks like Corrosion from Cell Rot off gassing

The scales are not bad Glen, they need to be heated as they are too close together on the backside but overall they are not bad and only have a few nicks in them.
