    Default First Attempt

    Last week I picked up two razors for about 15 dollars. Both sets of scales were broken and the blades themselves had both rust and tarnish on them. I bought these mainly for honing practice but after a couple hours of hand sanding I came out with this. I now realize I should have taken a photo before I started.

    I took this photo about half way through sanding.

    This is how they turned out.

    Now I'm shaping wood scales to put on these. I think they may turn out to be decent shavers.
