Alex, please post more pictures. Also, how did you do the aging?

My WR3 .74 OC in antiqued bronze should be here early next week. Customs in LA is where things always get backed up these days. The wait is killing me!! Can’t wait to see this new WRH4 XL handle in person.

 Here you go! I was too excited and did not take a photo of the razor before I applied my go-to generic bronze/brass aging solution, which you can buy on Amazon.

That turned out awesome! I used that stuff on my Hone and on my Karve and both turned out great.

Beautiful. What is the product name? Does Flitz take it all off?

I am loving this bronze 1.55. The scalloped top is awesome and used my antique bronze Tibam handle with it today. Can’t decide if I like this handle or the titanium Triad more than the WRH7XL that came with it. It has become my favorite Wolfman as of right now! 1.55 has been my favorite WR2 gap for a while. My 1.65 is starting to collect some dust. Also, I can never thank James (LOOT) enough for getting me to try a Gillette Silver Blue blade! As always, you are the MAN my friend!!

Thank you! 
Here is the link to the product that I used : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00491...UTF8&psc=1

I haven’t tried it, but would be surprised if Flitz would not be able to handle the thin layer of oxidized material with a sufficient effort.

I picked up some of the Gillette Platinum Swede blades from Bullgoose. I am thinking it is better than the GSB. Expensive tho.

Glad you dig the GSB. They work in all of my favorite razors.
