Polished brass

Looks good! I did the same thing with a copper one. Sanded to 12k and buffed on a bench grinder with various compounds. Probably could've done the whole thing on the grinder but wanted it as mirror as possible.

Great job!! I've found a couple of things through the years that I'll add. Applying Renaissance Wax to brass razors after polishing will significantly slow the tarnishing process. Also, I was lucky to come across a most excellent polishing cream, called Blue Magic. In my view, the folks at Blue Magic really cracked the code on polishing creams.

Hey, I own that handle now!!! It looks amazing!!!

Glad you're enjoying it my friend!

Agreed! I try to keep my brass shiny and use renaissance wax but I do have one in letting slowly build a light tarnish on. Have not tried the Blue Magic but will have to give it a look. I tend to use Flitz to keep them shiney after I've polished them.

I definitely am!!!
