As recieved.

Took the tube from the '20's ball-less ball-end and put it on the nekkid '20's Single Ring.

Cleaned them some and;

Good result. Any cracks in the handles or bad brassing on the top plates?

The top of the cap on the gold one is bare brass, the previous owner "cleaned" it with something rough, so I polished it. The tube on that same razor was silver plated and cracked, I soldered the cracks from the inside and scrubbed away the silver so it's all gold colored at least.
The silver plated one is perfect.

Thank you Paul.
I am very happy, they have perfect teeth, the heads have no frown, dead straight, and they were dirt cheap. I was pleasantly surprised with the plating on the silver plated one, it's very close to perfect.

And the ball-end head that I took the handle tube from has perfect teeth and nickel plating. I put a DDD handle on it.

I know we normally banter between new and old but I love seeing your restorations. Those razors look great and I think your brushes are fantastic.
