    Thumbs up Corn... Who can say no to corn!

    I saw a Corn Scale razor a while back and thought it was COOL looking.

    Here are some before and after pics of the honing I did on it to get rid of the chip....

    NO OTHER restoration has been done on it... yet
    Just wanted to see if I could get a functioning razor out of it again.

    After:

    Those fools and their corn...

    Why corn and not say potatoes or carrots?
    (A little cute girl I use to cook with say callots, way cooler than carrots)

    Tis not foolish, silly Lemur! Now what would a carrot or potato razor look like? A "callot" razor?
