Thread: Making lemonade from lemons

After a terrible mistake on my part my brand spanking new revisor 6/8 was left in pieces.


It took me a while to be able to pick it back up and decide where to go from there but I finally got around to it. Even though I know it is terrible to take such a beautiful razor and cut it down I wanted to see if I could make the remaining metal into more than a shattered letter opener. So I started to bread knife away… nearly honed all the way through my fingernail by not paying attention . Any how after laboring away I am pleased to present what I could salvage. And despite my doubts it sharpened up and passed the shave test with flying colors. Revisor uses some damned good steel.


Sad to see the razor go this way but glad to have something that I still find beautiful and functional.

Cheers,
Sailor
