Very nice. Was it forged or stock removal ? I would think it would have had to be tempered and annealed or visa versa ? I would like it more if you had curved the monkey tail and scaled it. Probably because I am not into the kamisori thing at all. I also would like to see custom makers, pro or beginning, get away from meat choppers. It seems to be the default of all custom guys to do 7/8 to 9/8. Give me a 6/8 over a meat chopper any day. Beautiful job though.

I would agree with your reply, I would say the razor is a little on the large side for my liking, and my ideal razor would be 13/16 full hollow grind, but this project was more of a learning curve rather than a necessity, and if I were to make anther I would definitely down scale the razor, and make changes to the design.

Jamie, fantastic razor mate. Very nicely done. I hope she shaves as well as she looks.
Well done.
