    Question Razor Repair

    My girlfriend's sister's teenage son got hold of one of my razors and cut up anything he could get his hands on. I tried to repair the blade but i fear it is the beyond the scope of my abilities at this time. The blade has noticeable dents/pieces missing. Where can I send my razor to get it fixed? I will try to take some pictures and put them up. I tried to get it out with a 220 grit norton but it didn't work

    Thanks

    It has been a long time since you originally posted about this, huh? In my opinion, these small nicks can easily be honed. I have honed worse nicks with a 220 grit stone. If you find the repairs beyond your ability, why don't you send it to an expert honemeister? There a a number of them listed in the classified section under member services. I would not worry about these nicks and would not call your razor names... ;-)

    Al raz.

    No biggy a honemeister can wack that out in minutes. Worth the $15 to repair. So figure a $27 investment $26 to ship repair and return and $1 for the bullet. JUST KIDDING!!!!

    You're lucky there. I was expecting to see far worse damage! Completely fixable, but he deserves a hiding for his own good!

    My advice would be to use the razor on the kid before you send it away to be fixed. I think he would benefit greatly from a good thrashing.
