    You will lose some blade height removing them but not too bad. Love the bottom one, the W & B.

    The Cooper(?) Looks like it may have some metal corrosion issues.

    The WB is sweet!

    The metal corrosion looks worse than it is in the photos..
    That Diamond edge is so nice.. I keep that with my special W&B stash.. One day i'll fix it up..

    The top W&B is the most interesting though.. It doesn't look that large in the photo because of the angle but it is big..the massive chips are disgusting, it seems to have a very large barbers notch which i have never seen before..

    These are old photos i was going through last night, i will dig it out when i get time..
    Thanks

    Too bad! Stinks when you open the razor and THEN spot that chip on an otherwise nice razor.

    reminds me of a razor I use to LOVE. Was a puma duck 350 square tip, unfortunately, I dropped it when shaving and it was given some bad chips. Always on the lookout for another one of those razors

    How did you round the toe? I tried that with a Dremel cut-off wheel on a W&B with some really bad chips and the blade cracked.

    2 x 72 inch belt grinder held vertical to the wheel. If held flat/perpendicular the blade will break.
