Need help with this blade I just got from eBay (the newbie got the best of me). Can anybody tell me the manufacturer of it? I searched for the hammer logo on the shank with Refined Steel Sheffield blades, but I was unsuccessful in finding anything.
I was looking for a wedge to restore and this seemed to be a nice one to try it on.
The tang seems to be chewed off, but I have seen that some of them had a very small tang to begin with, regardless I can still hold the razor well enough.
The scales are either panted horn or tortoise, but they are in really bad state, I may need to rescale L, unless there is a way I can save them. Any suggestions?
I have no experience whatsoever restoring, nor I have the tools for that matter, but I have been reviewing the restore section, and will continue to do so. But if you have any suggestions on the best way to start, they will be greatly appreciated. Consider me blank canvas.
