    Default wrought iron and 1084, non-folding razor

    Here is a razor I finished this week. The spine and handle are wrought iron the cutting part of the blade is 1084. The high carbon steel is forge welded to the iron. I textured the the handle. The blade is a western symmetrical grind it is about a half hollow. The blade is about 6/8 by 2 1/4.

    Charlie, that is pretty slick Brother

    You took that to the next level with the mating of the two metals, grinding out a razor from a bar of steel is impressive enough but actually "Forge Welding" it, makes me sit up and take notice....

    Excellent use of the two metals. It's got plenty of character mate. Great work Charlie, I like it.
