    I'm not quite ready to put this in the Restorations gallery. I'd like to get opinions on it.

    First up, the razor-porn spread:

    And now I'd like opinions.

    Despite executing the domed washers about %99.8 perfectly, I'm not loving the way they look on this razor. I think I should've gone with traditional flat washers. Plus, having done the pins after dark, I didn't notice the spot where my CA coat delaminated around the pivot pin.

    Second, the scales look so good I want the blade to look better.

    Should I repin and go back to the hand-sand mines until the blade is closer to perfect?
