Cool stuff!

I'm also in the process of making a razor. I bought a piece of 01 carbon steel, have annealed it in a homemade furnace (metal bucket, gravel, ashes, kitty-litter and a motorcycle exhaust as the downpipe with a tube for forcing the air from a hairdryer into). It worked wonderfully well. From what I've been reading it sounds like you did a decent job of annealing it. And if you have heated it up again to cherry red and quenched it in oil and then hardened in your oven for a few hours you should be good to go. I'm not finished grinding mine yet...

Good luck! I'm sure some guys with a lot more experience than me in working metal will be able to give you some great advice.
