Great work Mike. Like Tom said, just the right amount of restoration.

That's funny from my perspective, I keep ding experiments to try and figure out how I can make new scales look like the old ones. Ideally I would like perfect but aged scales and a perfect grey/black patina with no black rust or pitting. I have one that is a perfect example, and now I want to make some look like the old razors once they have been cleaned. I can get the blade looking old but not the scales.

Black walnut left out in the sun for the summer, Kiwi black shoe polish, and leave it outside for the Midwest winter. Or what Outback says.
