    Apart from a beautiful looking razor I love the juztaposition of a razor made from a bastard file called The Bastard with the remnant of Nichlson left on the tang.

    You should truely be proud of what you have made.

    Looks like this thread has been resurrected from 2012, but I'm glad, because I'm seeing it for the first time. Well done!

    Beautiful job, Man.

    Im reading a lot of the replies and comments. a lot of them wish you well and they hope that it shaves well. Im very new to straight razors. New, as in i got my first one in the mail this week and my first cut still hurts, new.

    This might not be the right place to ask this, but why would it not shave well from a forging stand point. I understand that the honing and finishing part of it obviously is very important, but what from the forging would hurt how the razor shaves? The steel? The bevel angle? all that seems like it would obviously be worked out in the initial plans. I guess what im asking is what if left up to chance?

    sorry if this is confusing, im not really good with typing questions from my brain.

    Anywho.... that is beautiful
