That looks good enough to be a Charlie Lewis!

Thank you guys for the kind words and encouragement.
I twisted it then hammered it flat on the anvil. I also had to do a bit of persuading with a big vise, big wrench, and a blow torch after heat treat.

Encore maestro!
Great work Charlie! I love the twist and I love the juxtaposition between the curved scales and the straight blade. Lovely!

That is a great looking razor. Reminds me of an old tune Twist and Shout.
