Thank you...

I just don't want to discourage people from trying, but really it comes down to picking the right razor to restore when you first start out, start simple and easy and build up to the harder stuff..

Every single restorer here that I know started with sandpaper in one hand and a rusted razor in the other and slowly learned the tricks that it takes.. Now I do agree that anyone rushing into this hobby whether it be shaving, honing, or restore, is likely to have not so good results

In the end though they are your razors and your faces, so it is in your hands..

Myself I started restoring razors because I refuse to use Rusty, Dirty, Pitted, steel on my Hollywood face, so it was either buy new or learn to clean them up... I did both
