    Default Hone Wear ?

    Ok so i found another one . Does this blade seem salvageable
    or another dud.
    This one is a J.WISS
    Again scales are in good shape.
    No cracks or chips in blade .
    A little rust on the tang near the pivot.
    Just not sure about the hone wear . Is this considerable hone wear?
    Again any info would be Greatly Appreciated
    thanks.

    Not all that bad, and seems even at least. I'd call it well used, but with plenty of life remaining.

    +1. I'd buy it and use it. I don't mind a little hone wear on some razors. I think it gives it some character, and as someone else pointed out in the past, it lets you know that the razor was well used, and therefore, probably well liked. I take it to be an indication that it was/is a good razor

    I agree with Hawkeye . That razor has plenty of shaves left in it , and the scales look pretty good , too .
