Thanked: 315A Few (Very) Rusty Razors
So, here are some razors I recently obtained. I'm cleaning up a little but can't give them the full treatment right now.
Gonna use some of these to practice repinning and maybe straightening scales. If I can get the materials together I may try the electrolysis method when I visit my family where there is room to work.
Anyway, a good example of what to avoid when buying razors.

And remember it dont have to be pretty to use. As long as the rust hasnt gotten to the edge, clean it up and hone it. It might still shave. You got a couple there that might still shave. But as you said, good practice work and a few good parts to be had in that mess.
Good luck.It's just Sharpening, right?
