Hi Guys
How do you all remove the razor pins?
End cutting pliers?
Cutting disk on a dremel?
Or is there a better way?

There are more threads if put unpinning into the forum search box. Not much has changed over the years.

Get some flush cutting cutters. About $20
As has been said, if you don't care about the washers flush cutters work very well.
A highly respected member and pro honer/restorer here turned me onto these cutters:

He does grind the down side more flush and said that he'll get around 3 months of steady usage out of one.
Yes I do use them :tu
I used my tabletop belt sander and a 120 grit belt. I figured that with the flat backing it would help keep things flat. I've been using mine for at least 3 years and if memory serves I used a hard rubber sanding block and some finer sandpaper to remove the deep scratches but I don't think they would have affected how they clipped.
When I visited with my friend Mr Clean we picked him up a pair and used his belt sander.
I suppose a diamond plate would also work. Probably just slower.

I prefer to save the collars, so I drill the head of pin off, and push the pin thru. Have yet to break a scale this way, and I don't use a drill press
If you ever work with ivory, Steve. You'll want to learn to drill them out, cause they don't have collars typically, and breaks easily under a sudden shock/impact.
What looks like a collar in this picture, is actually the head off the pin from this set of Ivory scales.
