Thanks AxelH.

I am done working on the Silver Steel - I just dont want completely ruin a nice blade. I have been reviewing some restorations and I think I have a couple members in mind that could probably do some good with that blade, so I will likely pay for that restoration - Or I will trade the blade for something a little less delicate for my inexperience.

As for the honing and taping, I am not going to be doing my own honing. I see a couple vendors on this site that will do a fine job and for a good cost too. I am only looking to hone the Taylor for now since that is going to be my shaver. The sanding and polishing I can do on my own, but I havent got the stones for honing (hidden joke in there).

I have used a non-pivot safety before, but not many times. My fiancee's grandmother just went into a home so I was given the brush and two razors as a thank you. The second razor I havent identified yet.
