I'm new to straight razor shaving. While waiting for my PRC Sprite and strop to arrive, I came across this golden oldie and bought the old girl.
Don't know how old it is, but I'm guessing it's close to 100 years.
It's my intention to clean up the bevel with my 6,000 grit water stone (final step for my chisels and plane blades), followed by some time on 1 and .3 micron lapping film, then the strop.
I'm guessing the scales are Bakelite? Any thoughts on giving these a shine?
Anyone know other info regarding "Clauss" blades?
This forum is a terrific resource!
