Thanks so much for sharing the link to his testimonials.The one from your grandfather probably doesn’t need anything more than a VERY mild cleaning with some warm water and a little dish detergent, based on its appearance in the picture. The blades will have a date code on them, that will tell you approximately when he bought them.
I wouldn’t even consider having that one replated, but if you want to have the other one done here is a thread dedicated to Back Roads Golds work, Chris replated my Father in Laws Gillette 195 that he gave me years ago and it’s beautiful.
The BRGAS (Back Roads Gold Appreciation Society)
What? BRGAS is a society for those of us who have had our razors etc replated, or tuned up (or both), by Chris at Back Roads Gold (or simply purchased a refurbished razor from him). Why? I thought it was time for some (more) love of that additional functionality and shine that Chris imparts on...www.badgerandblade.com
Also, thank you for mentioning the razor date. That is really cool and gives me a piece of his history. I'll also heed your advice regarding his razor.
