    And today I've been working on the Magnetica. I'm slowly getting better at safely unpinning razors.

    This one has been unpinned and repinned before, as you can see at the pivot. The etch is very thin and the tang stamps were not deep, I couldn't clear them up much.

    Loving the domed washers on the other razor, I decided this one would have some as well. And then I noticed: I'm almost out of washers! Oh, calamity! Ordered right away.

    The result:

    Not honed yet, it won't take a bevel because of a tiny frown that needs attention first.

    Thanks for the excellent walk-throughs, Laurens-I'm gonna try that hammer/drill/pinch technique for making domed washers!
