1 hand forged , 1 decorative spine
Well, this is the first one I've beat into shape...lol. It only took a few months
I hammered on it every week or so while I was normalizing other razors.. Then would let it set for a while.
Once it got it close..(was sure it ever would), I took it to the grind and knocked down the hammer marks and finished the hollows.
I end up with 7/8 size and the 2.75 cutting edge. I added some jimping and a few file marks as well.
Scales are jade green G10 with a purple tru-stone wedge.

Fantastic work Brian, congrats on your first hand forged blade. Both razors look great.
How did you do the spine work?
