Alan you should be proud. That type of result doesn't happen without a lot of work and skill .

I would like to see the before pictures if you have any. It looks great.

 

What a great idea @ugadawg

@Morman Bridge Alan do you have pics from before your restoration?

 

Hello, I used to have pictures of it step by step, but my old phone fried, and those photos are long gone. Sorry.

 

Thank you. At least you have pictures of the finished work. Again congrats on a job well done.

 

Thanks for your interest guys, but as stated, those photo's are long gone. I wish I could show them to you. Again, sorry.

 

My Old Russian Open Comb made in early 1950's

 

Since there are not any pictures, I am forced to believe that you just found the razor at an antique store in excellent condition. Seriously though, your razor and case look great. Was the razor in bad condition as well or just the case?

 

Other my travel razor - German (Solingen) made before WWII

 

Hi, both the razor and the case were tarnished and filthy. They both needed work. As well as the interior trays had to be fabricated, and lined with velvet. Thanks for your interest. Have a great night.

Hello all, here's this morning's OC SOTD -
Pearl OC head/SABI T-2 handle.
Polsilver Super Iridium blade.
Simpsons Duke 2 pure badger brush.
Caties Bubbles Spanish Holiday soap.
Nivea post shave balm.
Pinaud Clubman as splash.
4711 cologne.



This head/handle combination is very efficient. It is heavy, but easy to use. I only had to remember the no pressure rule. It is a very good shaver. A two pass BBS! Have a good day everyone!

I continue to enjoy my month with the Timeless OC. Thus far I have found it to be a very smooth and efficient shaver.

 

Looking good Clint!

 

Thank you, Alan

I've been shaving with my new Acevivi dual-comb razor. One side is closed come, and the other side is open comb. It is about a medium aggressive razor with a light head and heavy handle.

 

Current subject of January 2017 Rule/Focus. Auditioning blades. So far, 7 o'clock Green is leading with Voskhod's waiting on deck. This NEW SC will be going into my rotation along with an EJ DE89 and a '71 SA-109.
UPDATE 1/24/17... Voskhod's looking good. Green's could be in trouble!

 

One of my favorites.

 

Thank you. A $5 fleamarket find this past summer
