Thanked: 12New Build
Lately I have been really focusing on grinding (mainly hollow grinding and keeping everything even and blending grind lines). This is a razor that I just finished up a few hours ago. I honed it and it really took a nice edge. I scored a coticle of the bay about 2 months ago (a used albeit it barely, Ardennes) and have been playing with it as a finisher under running water and a good stropping on my loom strop. This razor really gave a great shave. Currently it seems that the heel is the area that is giving me the most difficulty. This bevel is really nice and even right up to the heel where it get just a touch wider mainly on the back side.
The specs are:
Steel- O1
Grind - Full hollow (as thin as I can currently
Width- Slightly more that a 6/8
Point - Spanish
Scales-Paua ALVS
Wedge-Faux micarta ivory
Jimps on the bottom of the tang
As always thoughts, comments, critiques, and feedback much welcomed!
