Thanked: 0My first razor nearly ready for heat treat.
Well here it is!
Please go easy on me since this is the first time I have ever made anything out of metal.
I have had some experience with wood before but really only building speaker boxes.
I made the razor out of 1/4" thick 1084fg steel.
Blade width is 9/8
I rough cut the majority of it with a hacksaw
I used an 8" bench grinder to shape it before griding the hollows on the same grinder
File work was done with a chainsaw file and a triangular needle file
The thumb grip was made with a dremel
The jimps were done with a hacksaw
So what does everyone think?
I still have to fix a few filing mistakes and clean it up with some sandpaper before the heat treat but I'm pretty happy with it.
Oh and it will be set in some scales, but I'm not yet sure what material I will choose.
