Got a good deal on three Henx razors off ebay. I'd been wanting to add one the my Henckels kitchen knife collection just to be a completist. Two were in great shape and this third one had a nearly mint blade but cracked scales. Here's the before shot:
Work in progress on the bench. I have a length of nickle silver rod that turned out to be perfect for the pin replacements.
And some after images:
I lost one of the washers during the resto and after 15 minutes on my hands and knees searching for it I gave up. I snipped a bit of a thumbtack to make a replacement which you can see here on the left side.
And here's a glamour shot:
Pretty darned happy with the results!
