Thanked: 0Buying my first straight razor--question about damascus steel and HRC Cutlery
I am looking to get started with a quality straight razor, and have been reading some great forums on here and learning a lot. I've been looking at vintage, German-made razors primarily, but I came across HRC Cutlery from Utah on Ebay and wondered if any of you have experience with their damascus steel straight razors? I am suspicious that their product looks too good to be true at about $70, but they have excellent reviews and sound legit. Here is a description of their handmade blade design:
"Blade Material: Damascus Steel 15N20 & 1095 Hand-Forged
Blade Hardness: 58-60 HRC on Rockwell scale
Total Layers: 512 (8 folds German 1095HC / Swedish 15N20)"
Thanks for any feedback you can offer! I am new to the forum.
