Thread: suggestions for places with straight razor services

i was seeing if i could get some help/suggestions, i'm trying to find places that will do some restoration and shapening/honing services for straight razors. my straight isn't in that bad of condition but i do have some light red surface rust in a couple spots. i was wanting to get the rust removed and possibly polished as well as get the blade resharpened. I don't think the scales need to be replaced but i'm not sure. I've found a couple places but was going to see what places were highly recommended. I know razor emporium does (which is where i got my vintage razor), also, classic shaving. Any suggestions help. Thanks.

Hey there,

I chuckled when I read this thread. I thought "wow this guy is willing to move home to be closer to a honemeister".

Just my rubbish humor

Thanks
