ALL OF MY RAZORS COME SHAVE READY OUT OF THE BOX

As a general rule, all of my razors have been restored to be used as a shaving instrument again unless I have noted otherwise. They are all ready to be used after a light stropping.

In several cases, I have not taken ALL evidence of past oxidation and damage off of the blades. The primary reason is that it would be cost prohibitive to do the work and still make the razor affordable. Just look at it as leaving the razor with a little character.

So, although all of the rust has been removed, some imperfections remain on the less expensive razors. I try to take pictures that show any of these flaws.

In almost all cases, the razor will look better than in the picture.
