First, I donīt know the Jacobīs razor - but - they look like that they come from the same source, than the other pakistan razors (imo).
Here is the one, with I played arround:
The back of the blade is to tin for a 7/8, the scales are much to heavy and the grind is unfinished. So it was possible to re-harden and temper the blade.
Here is the blade after the regrind:
The filework on the back was also to sharp, so it "grinded" the strop. I rounded them to fix this.
Here is the finished razor with simple ebony scales (i dont puted too much skill and time in this project ):
After that the steel was hard and honeable. Itīs possible to shave with the razor. In my opinion the quality of the steel is ok, but not very good or outstanding. After the process you will get a average razor with a good optic. But the qualitiy of a real custom damascus razor is much more higher. Without optical aspect this razor is for me in a price range from about 50,- Euro. Without a new heattreating it is grap.
