Good evening (or what time of day you are reading this) gentlemen.

I have a question about steeltypes in straight razors.

The first razor I made was patternwelded, made of UHB20C and 15N20. I don't know if you use the same names for the steeltypes, but these are european names. They are bought from https://www.nordellknives.com/portal...56&language=se

The problem was the hardness of the blade. The blade doesn't hold an edge, but it looks nice.

I read about you using O1 but as I thought that O1 was very likely to rust, even if you just leave it over night... But I saw it recommended in several posts.

What can you recommend? It would be perfect if I can buy it in Denmark, Germany or Sweden.

Thanks and regards
Kristian
