Thread: A little smile

Great work. That's really top drawer. Thanks for sharing all the pics.

Well done, good job.

Thanks everyone I have 3 more razors to finish out and scale today then I will hone them all,I can't wait to see how this one shaves.As I said lots of firsts on this one and shaving with a smiling near wedge will be one of them.For those that don't know I'm a long time knife maker and have dreamed of making razors since I was a boy.I started my quest to make my dream a reality in December.I made about a dozen practice blades just to get my tools and my technique dialed in .I've got a handful of 5/8 and 6/8 blades done and now this one.I have a lot of folks to thank the folks on the forum for there generosity with knowledge and especially Charlie Lewis for inspiring me to do this and for helping me with wheel selection.That may seem like a small thing but it's not.It wasn't that long ago that bladesmiths revealed nothing .Thanks to this community for everything and thanks to God for without him I am nothing.Paul

Honed it up using Charlie Lewis's method and it gave a fantastic shave this evening.

I see only one problem with this razor AKwildman..............it's not in MY shave den and shaving my face.

Thanks for the vote of confidence,I originally made this razor with the intention of selling it but I don't think I can do it after using it,kinda fell for it lol .

Nice razor. Off the beaten path is always good in my book. I think they call it style :<0)
