These are two restores i finished over the weekend for Bechet45 over on the UK forum the TSR, both came in for a full restore, scales removed re-worked and polished, the blades were both rusted and pitted, the Taylors 1000 was the better condition of the two, took them both to the buffer and started with 150 grit and worked my way up to the eventual polishing mops, both had new pins and washers plus internal washers the Taylors also had a new internal bush for a overly large pivot hole,to bring it down so a 1/16 bar fitted snugly, they were both honed and made shave ready, well i'm very pleased with the finished razors. now for a few photo's. Jamie.
I always love looking at your finished projects Jamie! You do such an amazing job! Those straights look great!
I'm beginning to think that now that I have honing down to the point where I'm at-least spelling it correctly that I might try my hand to refinishing all the razors that I just sharpen. That way I can re-re-hone them all again! May be I should have started with 1. Take apart and polish before ; clean and hone!! A lesson for the next life time!-)
