This razor was fully restored to near perfection by Max Sprecher. The blade has a satin finish. The edge has a "smile" as shown in the photos with slightly heavier honing wear at the heel. The faux Ivory scales were shaped and sized individually by Max for this razor. We have had the razor professionally honed. So, it is completely shave ready.
