Thanked: 0Motivation - love of practicality
I appreciate the fine craftsmanship of many of the razors shown here. It truely is approaching the level of art.
I wanted to talk restoration from a slightly different angle. I get a special satisfaction out of taking old razors and giving them a second life. I'm not talking about the diamonds in the rough but more the three legged dogs, razors that at best might be a good shaver but never have any real value for collectors.
Taking a $5 razor that's tarnished and collecting dust and making it usable is very satisfying, especially when I can get a closer, more comfortable shave from this than the latest 5 blade plastic thingie on the market. I guess it just feels like found money. :-)
