Please le us see your razor after you put it back together!

Use some chrome polish on it & also put a little light oil on it to preserve it.

Finally, handle arrived today. I don't have much equipment at my home but I figured it out and rescaled it. Now I will send it to professional honing. Name: uploadfromtaptalk1410801647226.jpg

Very good! Did your blade line up good? Thank you for your photo's. It looks like you did a great job.

Yes it lined up perfectly. And I make the pivot pin little bit stiff, I don't like loose blades.
Thank you for your support @engine46

Today I shaved with Taylor and it was very close and smooth. I'm very glad to restored this old razor.
The quarter hollow/near wedge gives very different feedback. Almost a silent killer while cutting the whiskers.

The Taylor is a great razor.I'm glad you got your hands on one. They really shave better than you first thought. Great score!!!!!!

Thanks @engine46 it's a quarter hollow and it delivers really different shaves but in a very good way.
