A Second Life for a Broken Blade!

A while back, I posted how I broke a perfectly good Heljestrand straight. While it wasn't usable in that form, there was good Swedish steel left, and thanks to fellow member Charismata, I now have this wonderful little mini-straight:

which is the perfect size for getting at some nooks and crannies under the back of my jaw. Tried it today, and it worked beautifully. It may become a supporting player in every shave from now on!

The supply of knowledge and good will here is wonderful. Instead of a broken razor, I have a unique special purpose straight—and the design, materials, and workmanship are superb. I suppose that's what we all do when we fix up and use old straights—take cast off stuff and make it not just functional, but luxurious. Count me a happy camper. :smile:
 
I'm glad you like it. It's nice to see a hopeless situation turn out for the best.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to make it useful again.

Very nice picture by the way.
