    Default Some History about making open razors.

    I thought I would put this information source up for you guys who can make razors.

    It may just have some useful tips if you look at the information.

    One thing I noticed is that the reason for grinding a wedge is so that you can hold the razor at a more acute angle to the face. That for me means closer. Closer means less likely to cut/safer.

    You need to click the titles in the box at the top right to work through the information.
