And I can confirm. Even a stainless steel razor will rust.
The other side of the blades has some spot. The razor was well dried, but stored in my travel bag for a few weeks next to a humid badger. That was enough apparently.
You have my sympathies. But I can't help wondering. Are you sure that it was the badger? You didn't have any used gym socks in the bag by chance?

Sorry, my sense of humour isn't very subtle. I do hope that the spots will come if with a fine grit sand paper.

I used to work with a stainless steel piping & sheet metal guy that whenever I pointed out some rust coloring on his work he would say..."It's called stain-LESS not stain-FREE". :lol:

Gold Dollar 300, rehoned once again and as sharp as can be. It delivered the requested three pass BBS shave without complaints, but I still prefer a more hollow ground razor. Yes I know, I´m a spoiled whining little boy. No I´m not, I´m a grumpy old bastard.:001_smile
