    As Mainaman hinted the other side of the razor has the hard steel.

    Just FYI Tamahagane does not always show a wavy grain pattern. There is also nashiji-hada which looks like this Iwasaki western style razor. It is a result of more folding into a homogenous mix.
    Nashi is a pear so the name refers to a pear like surface.

    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.
