That razor should turn out nicely. What grit paper is that? Looks really low.

Thanked: 3228Interesting, just fixed up a pipe blade that is exactly the same. Should come up real nice. What do the original scales look like?

I don't think I would use 80 grit cause it would take along time to get rid of the scratches "IMHO". 320 is usually what I will start with and on the rare occasion I would use 220.

I started with 80 on my first two razors as they had quite a bit of pitting. I didn't have much problem going up in grit from there. I just picked up a pipe razor last week for an upcoming project but it's going to take a bit of work to get it looking good.

How far up in grits have you got? Did you make sure you removed all marks from the previous grit?
