    Dang! I like hamons. And I love big smiley blades. What did you use to color the steel?

    Thanks,
    skipnord, it's iron trichloride, or boiling white vinegar.

    Probably the nicest custom I've seen in a long while, personally. I just love the chiseled cut and the matt finish (this is the sort of minimalist aesthetic I'm working on with my own custom razors).
    I also love how thin and tight your bevel is - has a nice machined precision to it that I just love on a custom blade - and that I really don't see very often.. highest compliments to you Cedric.
