    Default 8/8 Tamahagane razor

    An 8/8 + razor in my Ottoman inspired chopper design. The steel is Tamahagane from Bob Kramer. It was etched in nitric acid. The scales are a hybrid of buffalo bone and casting resin. One thing worth highlighting is the bevel. This razor is shaveready in the picture, and the bevel is so small you'd have to zoom in just to see it. The grinding at the edge is extremely thin.

    Yeah, I don't even see the bevel in the first pic. Still looks pretty thin in the second picture.

    Nice work.
