Singing damascus Mini-razor

This is the last mini-razor I finished. The blade has a real, real hollow grind :w The thinest part of the blade near the edge has a thickness of only 0,007 inch. Thats why the razor is very flexible when you shave with it and has a nice sound :D
The handle is once again from ebony with a rough aluminium wedge.

Great looking design. I use a shorty and love it, this one is a real classy razor and has your finger prints all over it. Great job!!
How long is the blade?

Wow, THAT is purdy. I prefer wedgier grinds but heck, if I owned that razor it would definitely be top of my rotation. Loving everything about it. Excellent work, and can't wait to see the next razor from you.

I like the profile and size of that blade. That is a great blade shape.

I like the different textures, the patterned steel, the smooth ebony and the roughish aluminium go together very well.

The hollow grinding looks super. What size contact wheel did yo use?

I used several wheels. I began with the diameter 12,5 cm. After that I used the followed diameters: 10 cm, 9 cm, 8 cm, 6 cm, 5 cm to go higher and higher to the back.

Yes, this is right. But this one is yet sold. But I having here still the blade, that had a crack in the shank. I fixed this problem now. Perhaps, after I will finished it, this will be the first damascus razor, that I will own for my self.

Beautiful work & I always like your scales tho I wonder if the tang was a fraction longer would scales be necessary ? Kind of Gothic/Japanese look. Just thinking out loud :)

I´m actually working on a simillar razor with a "monkey-tail". But I will be honest, I like the handles on razors. It´s in my eyes the easiest way to protect the edge for damages, and persons from the edge ;) You dont need boxes or other stuff like with japanese razors.
But if someone want a razor like this without a handle in a japanese style or with suminagashi steel, why not?
