    A Beat up gillette fatboy, and a 40's 'CRAT' are the 2 razors I selected for restoration I used Dave Glynn at 'Restoredrazors.com' AKA user name ONOTOMAM

    The return package was well packed in a nice little plastic carton

    They're both looking great!
    It'll be my go to address when I have saved enough to have my Gillette Old Style OC replated.
    That may take a while as there are so many different soaps, brushes, razors etc out there and which I haven't tried yet! ;)
