Daniel
Das sieht sehr gut aus! Kommen die Farben des Stahls von der Wärmebehandlung, oder ist es etwas Anderes? Ich mag den Griff.
Hi
@ ScienceGuy The colores from the steel are from the heattreating i thought they look nice on that razor so i dont grind them down and thank you for your mind!
The blade + the handle where made by myselve only the metal i get from a frind of mine its a toolsteel
Daniel
Looks good but this looks like a fixed blade western style, not kamisori
@ Mainman: thats right its verry thin but i dont like the wedges on my skin so i decide to build a razor wich is thin... and i think its harder to create a razor like this (thin) than a thick one

Looks nice, how does it shave?
That is a good looking blade, I like the shape of it.

Good work! If she can shave, then everything is fine.
The main thing - do not stop and look for your shape and style.
Good luck to you in your work.
Hallo guys
the shave is nice i sharped it 3 times 1. with a thuringian (that stone is to soft for that hard steel) after that i use a nakajama (that brings not the best resultats) the 3. where with the naniwa 12000 ss and chrom...
the shave is smoth the sound is phantastic the blade screams like a filarmonica ;-) i am happy with that razor
daniel
A bit rough on some angles, but a great little shaver. I'm impressed :)
Sieht gut aus mein freund :)
Looks good, the grind seems to be very nice and even on it! Wish my first hollow grind would have been like that :P
Hi
thank you all for your nice words. I am buying more razors after my tests in the next 6 weeks
IMHO the shave is out of this world!Quote:

Having never used a 'fixed western style' blade like this - or a kamisori for that matter - I wasn't quite sure what to expect...
Well, the very first stroke on my cheek was so smooth and effortless I thought it was a fluke. But by the fourth stroke though there was no question that it was going to be one of the most pleasant shaving experiences I've had in a long time. Granted, I did nick myself a bit under the jawline - but that was no fault of the razor, just me getting used to a fixed blade design.
I'm now have four shaves under my belt with the razor - and can say without a doubt I am really, really liking the shaves I get with this razor...
It cuts through my course beard with even greater ease than my favorite straights (a Filly 14, Palmera 14, and Max Sommer 'Estas' 14 - which is why it really caught me by surprise at first...) and provides one of the closest finishes I've ever experienced.
The razor was sent to me as a short 'loan' for testing - but I don't want to give it back. Am going to have to have a talk with Daniel about making it a permanent part of my collection...
Thank you John for your nice words! i hope you injoy the shaves with my blade ;-)
Note the emphasis on "my blade"Quote:
