Thread: Is this unidentifiable wedge worth restoring?

Hello, this is my first post in the SRP forums.

The razor in the pictures below once belonged to my step-dad's grandfather. From what I can tell, it's a wedge, about 3/4" from spine to edge and contains what may be a slight wave in it. I'm not sure if it really may be bent or if just appears that way due to the spine being curved and the edge haveing a slight "smile" to it. If it is slightly bent, would it still be possible to hone and eventually use? I know it requires some major cleaning, polishing, and needs new scales but I wanted some opinions from experienced people before I undertook such a project.

Also, the wedge appears to be slightly skewed to one side (think of the way a right trianlge looks). Do most wedges look this way?







Thanks,

Brandon
