What's new

first try at a vintage straight

Hey guys I just picked up a razor from a antique shop. It looks good to me but I don't really know what I'm looking for yet. I knew I had seen that this was a good razor before on the forums. Its a red injun 101. Almost no pitting and just a little rust. I also don't see any nicks in the blade. I did notice that it has a crack on one of the scales where the pin is. My question is I don't have the stones or the talent to make this razor shave ready. I have seen post from people saying that some of the members will hone blades. Would anyone be willing to hone and touch up my first straight for me? Thank you for all you guys do on this forum.

You don't need stones or know-how. All you need is this link, and the few things the thread will tell you to get.
