Thread: Joseph Rodgers Restore

This is work in progress and came to me from my grandfathers cigar box that has seen some rust, but not to bad really. He passed away 30 years ago and I will hold this dear to me when finished. I have taken off the scales and started with 150 grit to get a good baseline down. After an hour I wish I had some 120 grit, but I'm enjoying the calm it brings me. The bevel is wider towards the center of the smile, and I am not sure if that is a problem or not. Before the sanding it measured 13/16" and I hope I wont lose a lot once it is sent to be honed. Any info would be appreciated about the restoration of this razors history.

The fourth picture is after maas and before sanding.
