You're definitely right. The motions that I used and the different pressures while using them have shown me what such low grit can do to the steel of a blade. I'm nowhere near done with this razor and I'll destroy it if I have to in order to learn a few things. There's only so much you can learn from reading and rereading articles in the wiki and watching some grainy film shot at bad angles online. Some things you have to learn the hard and expensive way.
Just remember.

Thanked: 4827While that is true, you may learn more from it by first developing some skills on easier projects. That one is a doozy. I am not sure it can be saved with a buffer, actually I doubt that it can be would e more accurate wording. I think that it is at that point that perhaps it is a good candidate for learning regrinding on.

Never tell me the odds until after I’ve done it.

Thanked: 4206Winter maintenance.
Rebuilt a two stroke trimmer carb, chipper shredder primer bulb replacement, and then ran some sea foam through the mower before packing it away for the season.

It looks like this trademark is for Thiers Issard and was first used in 1910. Cool!

Doing a clean up, on my first W.H. Morley & Sons Clover Brand.
Its in great shape, with light to moderate hone wear, and some light rust around the pivot, area. Nothing some "Blade Bling", and a rag, won't cure.
The blade was naked, when I found it in the wilds. So I dug up a set of scales that fits it very well, but needs someone's initial removed from it. A clean, sand, and fill with CA, will remedy that in short order. A search through the used collar pile, should yield a match, to the ones on the wedge pin.
The worst of the rust.

Thanked: 4827I often like to leave the initials in place, however those ones look less then desirable.
