Ditto.

I did a restoration for someone for 50$, and it took me nearly 20 hours.
I did it because I like restoration as a hobby.

I have been a contractor for 10 years, at 650 euros per day, but those rates have no relation to the time spent on hobbies.
Even blade masters like Joe and Robert charge very modest prices because they like doing it outside of their day job.

Anyway, if you don't have the time to resotre razors, there are always people like us who do
