Beautiful... Beautiful...
Masame hada, (wood grain ) ?? Did you choose to feature it only in the top half of the blade with the Fe Cl ?
It is subtly visible throughout the blade. Would love to see it in person.
Love Japanese steel.

The steel is layered from 11 layers on the left and 11 layers on the right sight wit an softer steel. In the middle is the white paper steel, that has a thickness from 1,5 mm. So the part of the edge will not have this "grain". Only on the top half, the back and shank from the razor is enough material, to show the grain, even I putted the whole razor in Fe-3-Cl.

Because of the softer back it is absolutely necessary to protect it with tape, if you hone the razor.
