    Would not recommend it though. Warpage a real possibility. Hamons are a nice surprise but no big deal if they don't happen. If they do happen makes me think the steel was shallow hardening, so good job quenched fast.

    Wow, what a great looking razor I really like the industrial look of it. Makes me want to build a forge just to make one of them

    That razor looks like it would shave just nicely. Has it been honed?

    On something as thick as a razor, the odds of warping are really low if it is annealed beforehand.

    I'd love to have a shave with it. I'm still debating whether to add a piece of steel in my next order to make a razor, so far it's just been knives. It's the starting dimensions stopping me.
