A while ago I picked up a straight razor that I thought was beyond hope.

The edge was chipped and the scales were missing giant pieces, I didn't think that much could be done and that it was beyond repair.

On advice from a fellow member I contacted Glen (gssixgun) and the dinged up razor was transformed into a work of art. (Please excuse my poor photography, the picture is a poor representation of the real thing)

Day off from work today so I decided to go for a run down to the shaver shop. Didn't end up getting what I wanted but picked up a tub of proraso and a bowl of C&E Nomad.
Love that proraso smell, smells sooo good. I could sit here all day and smell the proraso :biggrin:

Called into an antique store on the way home. Only managed to pick up one razor, a slant with the badge RAADVAD on the front.
It was black before I took to it with the metal polish and BAM.
