Thread: A Case for restoration?

Pardon the pun, but I acquired this Case during a junktique store expedition and it has me pondering what the future for it should be.

Option 1 - A good hand polish, hone it and start using it warts and all.

Option 2 - Peddle it and use the proceeds to fund better shavers.

Option 3 - An all out, return to original, restoration.

While I can make a case for all 3 options, I am new around here and there are many things I don't know that should influence the decision.

Are Case's average or above average shavers?

Does it command a value as is that would allow replacing it with 2 or more shavers of equal or better quality?

Does it command a value fully restored that would warrant the expense of having it done?

Usually these decisions are easier but I have no experience with the Case brand and the clad tang is an unknown entity to me. I do not feel comfortable tackling this one yet, as I do not want to damage something that may be worth more than its value as a restoration trainer. I have plenty of others for that purpose.

Your thoughts please.
