    The use of depth of field to bring attention to the foreground is good.
    Unfortunately, in most of the pictures, nothing in the foreground is sharply in focus...
    I have the same problem with many of my pictures - there is a balance between the point of interest and blurring the rest of the photo.
    Try increasing the depth of field just a bit, and focus on the tang of the razor...

    yeah, I tried to focus more on the tang to bring out more detailes but it wouldn't focus any more. I just gotta hone my photography skills a bit ;P

    Nice Razors. Try putting something white in an area where it will reflect into the blade so it shows the steel better. In many of the photos, the blades are quite dark and it prevents us from seeing the finer details on them as well. Razors are a challenging item to photograph due to their reflectivity, best of luck and keep up the good work.

    Yes! I would suggest a pair of dice, an ace of spades, or a 100 dollar bill would reflect nicely!
