Is this crack repairable, and if so is any body willing to do it for me? Attachment 174176 It's an 8/8 W&B. :cry:

No, it isn't repairable, the only thing to do is to shorten the blade. If you would like, I could do it. I always enjoy reshaping a razor and making it usable again. If the crack was in the body or the heal it would make it harder to do.
That sucks. Was it hidden Under the goo or did you drop it?
Really sucks,so sad,Shortening blades is to me an abomination.JMO
Better than the bin though :wQuote:

I can't fill the cracks with the point of a pin, so will hone it and see if it can be shaved with. I am opposed to shortening it as well. Thanks for everyone's advice.
With a heavy grind (wedge-y) blade, you can probably get away with, but I would NOT recommend it. Just a slight flex, and you have a very sharp corner dragged into your skin. IMO, not worth the risk.Quote:

Then ya gotta really nice scar for the rest of your life plus once healed would even be harder to shave around that scar!!!Quote:
