Did anyone of you have ever broke a rasor during the restoration . I have restore 20 and more razors and that nightmare never hapened to my , but today .....
I bought today from the flea market a beautifull Wilhelm Boos jr. Solingen Germany SIGI 92 razor . Blade size was 22 mm or 7/8 i think . I buy it with a 5x15 microcorund stone 800 grit , for 17 $.
The blade and the handle , were brand new but a few Dots of rust , and a few small chips . After grinding the small chips of the blade ,i decide to polish it ,as usualy . After 10 min of polishing with the Dremel and 1-6 microne paste i decide to insist more for ideal polish , and then the devil came . It was an american type point , and just in a part of the second i made a little mistake and the wool polishing weel grab the point
The result a huge piece of the blade aproximate 0.7x0.7 sm was broken of the point . I almost began to cry and after 1 hour of aufull regret , i decide , and i cut and shortened the rasor aproximate 1 sm of his 7.5 sm lenght .
Now i have a chubby 6/8 version of the most amazing , big and unique rasor that i could ever have in my miserable life .
This razor was exactly the same as J.Henkels Friodur 7/8 . I almost get my first hearthattac in age of 33 .
It is very stresfull experience and is example , not to rush things in owr pasion . Dont hate me please for this aufull crime .I wil not buy and restore more blades for a long time , in sure .
