First time restoration

Recently got into straight razors and decided to try a restoration and honing. Think I’m addicted now.

Looks nice and clean.

Yes, restoration and honing can be addictive, lots of good information on restoration, tools, tip and tricks.

Looks like the heel could use some correction, it would put the whole edge on the stone and remove the slight frown on the edge, and minimize spine wear, were the last honer tried to force the heel on the stone.

It is a simple-5 minute fix and will make the razor much easier to hone.

Nice job!

It’s a lot of fun and incredibly rewarding to bring these things back to life. The What’s On Your Work Bench thread on the Restoration channel is full of valuable information.
