This razor was fully restored to near perfection by Max Sprecher. It is quite probable that at some point in this razor's life the tip has been reground. The blade has a satin finish. The blade has a distinct "smile" as shown in the photos with significantly more wear at the heel. The Burned Orange acrylic scales were shaped and sized individually by Max for this razor. We have had the razor professionally honed. So, it is completely shave ready.
