    I forged this razor from W2 steel on Christmas Eve Day, 2014. Then I finished in on Christmas day. It has black and brown Micarta scales with toxic green G10 liners. Max Sprecher honed it for me and it is amazingly sharp :-)

    If I can afford it, I buy the best that I can. If I can't afford, I make it. If I can't make it... I do without!

    Nice work Sir, Is this your first forged blade? I will be watching how your designs evolve. And welcome the the SRP forum. Kudos

    Thanks, Wirm. I appreciate the kind words. I have forged several razors from homogenous steel and a few damascus ones as well.
