Just as a little background, I was restoring my great grandfathers razor that my grandma gave me when my grandpa died. (http://straightrazorpalace.com/works...questions.html)

I had the final coat of polyurethane on the scales and was putting the final polish on the blade when this happened:

Its a tough pill to swallow, ruining my great granddad's razor, but I cant do anything about it now. Time to start browsing eBay and the classified for blades.

I am going to keep it and put it in its old, damaged scales to have as a memory and a keepsake at least.

Hope you all are having better afternoons!
