I've also received some requests for "razor looking" knives. Basically just make a straight razor but don't grind the edge so thin, and then sharpen it at a 20 degree angle. These have been requested by people who like the looks of razors but don't know how to use them. So they want to use them as kind of a fancy pocket knife. I don't know how I feel about that though. I mean, to each his own but a razor takes a lot more technique to make than a knife. To me that is kind of like making a Ford Pinto that looks a little like a Mustang and calling it a Mustang II. Also, I can see that causing confusion for people and problems for me in the future when someone tries to shave with one of them.
