Razor making how to for smiths
Folks at IforgeIron.com (IFI) asked me to write a razor making how to. I said yes, and since a customer requested work in progress pics, I decided to kill 2 birds with 1 stone. Sadly, IFI moved away from VBulletin, to something cheaper. They have been having catastrophical software problems ever since. Posting anything longer than a couple of paragraphs with some pics is subject to an endless slew of disappearing posts, random permission errors and timeouts, etc. I gave up after a couple of posts in that thread and a couple of people asked me to post it on my personal site.
I decided to post it here instead, because then there is a way to discuss things and answer questions. To the visitors from IFI: Welcome. If you want to know anything or everything about straight razors, you have come to the right place. Feel free to register and participate. I can promise you that you can write long posts and not lose a single one after clicking 'submit'. :)
