"Broken Blade Rescue Mission" Thread!

[MikeT]

Hello Gents,

Well Ive been taking breaks from my 7 day set to work on other easy projects in between, can only work so long on one project and then need a break. Oh please God let me have just a few hours of undisturbed work this weekend! Ill finish it soon, I think, but for now here is another blade that I had from a long time ago when an antique store owner asked me to buy the whole box of razors and stuff and this was thrown in to the mix. That was a great day!
This one was an ugly duckling and I doubt many would consider restoring it, but as you can see it is looking quite nice. Really got some good practice in on the hand sanding (been working on my blade sanding skills after seeing Wolfpacks amazing blade finish).

I have a question maybe you guys could help with: How do I fill the void inside the spine? After I cut off the broken tip there was is this space inside the spine and I can see it could become a rust hole... Thanks for the info
And thanks for looking!

Maybe too much writing and only the pics were viewed..?
Maybe it's become a boring thread. IDK

One question: How do I fill the hole at the end of the spine left after cutting the broken tip off?

I'm thinking it could rust.

Thanks again for the replies
