Now that I'm getting into honing, once I've become proficient at it I want to move on to really preserving my vintage razors, especially cleaning out the pivots and really getting the dirt out. I don't have the space, supplies or money to learn how to pin a razor by peening it. I don't have a workspace and I have to do all this work on a small kitchen table. Hammering is a no-go. Microfasteners seem to be the way to go for me: no peening, less in the way of tools and supplies, and I can take them apart periodically and clean them. But, microfasteners look just a little funny to me. I know that microfasters are an alternative to pinning...is there in turn an alternative to microfastening? Maybe something that looks a little nicer?
