Re-purposed Lenox file.
Gentlemen, Re-purposed this Lenox file. I was trying out my new grinder. Seems to be a bit of a learning curve.
The razor/file isn't detailed out. Trying different things with the grinder.
Mainly was working on the hollow grind.
Yes I could have gone more simple. Don't know why I started with a 10/8ths.
Enjoy!!
Ray

That is one effen beauty! Makes me break out in avarice tremors. My hands are clenching and unclenching wanting to hold that steel snake and shave with it. Did I say I like it? Can you rent it out?
deepweeds and walleyeman like this."The sharpening stones from time to time provide officers with gasoline."

I like how you left the texture on the spine. Does this affect honing at all?

I keep looking at my old files now... Nice design! I know you said it was just an experiment but still, it's a pretty nice outcome! So uh, let's see that new grinder....

Well sir's, I was going to stop right there but I guess I will go on with it and make it a shaver.
Wasn't thinking about finishing it!
Razorfeld I need to finish it first!!!
SDJ1214 I don't know if the jimps on top will effect the honing yet!
AirColorado this is the link to the grinder build: http://straightrazorpalace.com/forge...der-build.html
Thanks all for looking!!

I believe the spine jimps will do more to the stone than to the blade.

Cool looking razor. The grinding looks good, it good to see that you are putting your grinder through its paces.
