    Default Is there a photo heavy post about how to access a new in vintage razor?

    Hello guys,

    Same as the title really, what to access first and in what order of importance? So not to bugger a razor up more than necessary

    I know I can just post photos any time I get a new one but I don't like bother people if I can just get on with it, I've been reading for weeks now but still have holes obviously in my knowledge.

    At the moment I check all the

    -Rust
    -scales ok leave on or off
    -check edge chips and such
    -sits flat both sides on the stones
    -heel and stabilizer work
    -check for frown
    --match the edge to the spine in term of shape. (This is what I'm limited at in my knowledge, so if anyone's got a link to a thread describing this I would be grateful)

    What else guys?

    Many thanks
