Hey gang,
On impulse I purchased this razor from an antique store thinking that it would be a snap to get into straight razor shaving. Well, a few weeks and many hours of scouring this wonderful website later, I think I'm almost ready to think about maybe shaving sometime soon with my razor.
So, what I would like to know is, is this razor worth fully restoring?
I've taken the rust off to make it functional but would it be worth unpinning to do a complete polish and replace the scales?
