    Default 17/16 roundpoint in blue denim kirinite

    This was finished today. I did the rough work and heat treatment some time ago, and I noticed it during the finishing stages. I didn't do all that I could before het treatment, which just means that it took longer after I went with a round point this time. I did the same half circle filings top and bottom. After heat treatment I cleaned them out with diamond files. that left a fairly decent surface that was easy enough to polish.

    Btw, the white line you see in the blade hollow is not a transition between 2 different types of steel or such. I wich I could forge like that and make it come out so clean No that is just a trick of the light and the reflection of my ceiling in the blade hollow.

    Amazing! I've never seen a razor with such narrow bevels. It's a really cool look.

    To be honest, I don't even know what instagram is, other than something to do with pictures
    I agree, the paddle tails go well with certain types of razor.
