Thanked: 21Reynolds with cracked toe
So I picked up this Reynolds for two dollars at an antique shop. I didn't know if it would be a razor I could restore to Shave readiness or not. I only liked it because it has a fish a fish etched in the blade, which as a flyfisherman appeals to me. Anyway you can clearly see that the razor has a rather large and significant crack and chip on the toe. In addition to that the razor appears to have a frown and some on even hone wear. Just wondering if there are any thoughts or suggestions about restoration in terms of eliminating the crack. I was thinking of rounding the tip with some sandpaper or using my Harbor freight diamond hone. Of course the spine might also need to be rounded, but aside from a Dremel tool, I don't have any other tools to round the spine effectively. Thoughts or suggestions on what I might want to do? Thanks in advance.
