    Default First Polishing Attempt--Photos

    I started my first polishing attempt on an old razor today. Did not remove the scales to do this, but I will at a later date.

    engine46--look familiar, thanks, again.

    Hopefully not too many photos and I put them in reverse order, finished first and then What it started as last.

    I am pleased, but will do better next time.

    Guess I also need to do better with cell phone photos.

    Photos looked good on my IPad but terrible here, I'll try to get a couple better after photos tomorrow.

    Looks pretty nice to me. I got a couple on my work bench I had worked on earlier. Work in progress.

    As long as you are happy and it shaves good is all that matters.
    If you don't care where you are, you are not lost.

    It is primarily for honing practice and I will shave with it also, thanks.
