    Default New kamisori

    ...actually two : )

    Steel (1.1 C%) and iron: Hardness of steel around 62 HRC.

    Dimensions: 150/45 mm

    They are not sharpened, so some “damage” from rough stone is visible.

    I was trying to achieve that “feudal japan” look. What do you think, did I do any good?

















    Thanks for looking!

    Thanks, I’m glad you like them.

    I can’t believe you actually mentioned file marks, I spend at least 20 minutes drinking coffee and looking at the blades with cup in one hand and new file in another thinking... to do it like this or with grinder? It is a bit unusual but I think it turned out OK.

    Cool!
    Usually I don't like when people try to make "kamisori style" blades but these I like...
    Keep the tool marks, sharpen them up and let us know how they shave.

    Thank you for the comments!

    Friend who is semi profesional at this sharpened them. Last stone, as he told me was Ozuku Asagi.

    I did my best with camera to capture polished bevels, hope you can see the difference.





    I’ll be back with info on shaving when I get customer feedback, so far so good
