Suminagashi predator
The second razor I made from the suminagashi steel. This time I stuck with the predator design to see what I could do with the steel. I am happy with how it turned out. One thing with forging suminagashi is that it highlights your mistakes. I hot-cut the blank from the stock, and apparently I did that not hot enough so the metal foilded a bit. This is why one side of the blade, the core layer of white paper steel on the front side doesn't come out exactly as I planned.
Still, all in all I think it has a certain something. The kirinite on this one is called 'red devil'.
Til shade is gone, til water is gone, Into the shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath.
