    Default Custom damascus razor - HG 7/8

    Hi everybody!

    I have just finished this razor now. I made it for me. The blade is forged by my hungarian friend.

    steel: M1 + 15N20, 144 layers, hardened to HRC 60.5
    scales: camel bone
    wedge: reconstituted turquoise
    edge: ~70mm
    blade wide: 7/8in
    blade thickness: 5.5mm











    Thanks for watching!

    Looking Good!
    The turquoise is a really nice touch.

    Yes! Yes! Yes! Beautiful, and I also particularly like the wedge, both material and the design, super cool looking blade.

    lots of attention to detail in there! very nice, just the work that went into the wedge shows amazing skills but the whole package really is a stunner, gorgeous. and youre keeping it all to yourself?!?! kind of selfish isn't it?! the geometry of the blade with the lightly cambered spine is an elegant touch to such a beastly blade.
