Thread: Chips to break your heart..

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

I fixed this chipped 8/8 a couple weeks ago.

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.

Dremel spins too fast and too hard to control. If you don't have a grinder, a diamond plate or diamond file is a better way to go. The metal is very thin at the tip and is easily removed. Slower than a belt, but sometimes slower is better. It’s a 5-minute job, it will take you longer to lay it out than to cut.

Nice even re-profiling on the Filly.

That is a nice repair. Hats off
