    Default delightfully unrefined, 1084 fixed

    I have had the itch to make something a little less refined. I forged these two from 1084. I put a shot in with a 8/8s Joseph Rodgers for size reference. I had fun with these, I have not made a razor with this style grind in a long while.

    I like "delightfully-unrefined."

    "Post-apocalyptic" also works.

    I'm loving the creativity Charlie!

    Charlie,
    I would have to say that your primitive styled razors are some of my favorites. It is nice to see you returning to that periodically.

    Admittedly it is very masculine but it also seems to follow the old design theory that "form follows function. Beautiful Charlie!

    I love how you break away from the normal customs! The creativity and craft is phenomenal-- delightfully fresh appearances, but rock-solid function as a top-notch razor.

    Bravo, Charlie!
