Thread: Red Injun 101 R.P.

The first time I had the pleasure of coming across a red injun boker it was shortened, ground down, rusted, and still provided an amazing shave after clean up and honing.
So when I saw a red injun 101 R.P. that had some active rust but for the most part very little ware I jumped on it. As a bonus it came with the original box! Judging from the fact that the seller only pictured one side of the razor I figured I might be in for a big surprise, but the price was worth the risk. There was a great deal of rust not pictured, but nothing to effect the edge thankfully. Heres how it turned out with a little 320 grit then polishing compound. I plan on setting up a wheel soon to do this properly, there are still scratches visible from the 320)

Here are some pics:

Honed it up and stropped, can't wait to see how she shaves in the morning!

Cheers folks!
