    Default Dry Sanding WIP

    I don't know what it is about this little razor, but I really like it !!
    When I recieved this, it looked like someone had used a handful of gravel to
    "clean" the blade faces....criminal !!

    Decided to dry sand only and started at #240, #320, #400 and finished at #600.

    Usually I wet sand with WD-40. Dry sanding seemed to take steel off faster, the only
    drawback was having to wear a respirator in 39 degree Aussie Summer heat !!

    I then hand polished with Mothers. There are plenty of pits left, but that's the way it goes.
    Definitely a rustic finish.
    Does anyone have any info on this manufacturer ?
