Need some advice on a blade I'll be restoring
Hi all,
just picked up a razor from ebay which isn't as good as I'd hoped it might be. It's a Taylor's Eyewitness 1000 which is quite tatty. There's a fair amount of rust, which I'm less worried about, I'm going to try electrolysis to shift that along with solvol and a dremel wheel.
The more worrying thing is the frown and the amount of wear. I'm wondering if I can spend some time with a coarse stone and just work down to a flat edge, taking most of the metal from the heel of the blade where it's widest. There's some photos below and I'd appreciate your advice. If I can get the blade in reasonable shape I'll make some fresh scales and see how it is.
Worst case scenario I'm out £10.
Cheers,
Justin.
