that was actually my inspiration for the blade shape...
Tell me more about breaking the anvil... I have been preparing to try damascus but it seems a bit of a job in my single car garage (which houses a car).
That looks pretty awesome.
I had a small 15 pound cast iron anvil, I hit the razor, but was working towards the tail of the anvil, and I broke the back off of it.
Were you using mjolnir? [emoji6]Quote:

I've never seen a santoku razor. Must be mean around the ears!
I bought black smiths hammers from a junk shop, they work great... soaked them in peanut oil to tighten the handles.
and as for mjolnir.. yes, you got me...
I think there was a flaw in the iron, it had a very coarse grain where it broke. (wish I'd taken pictures...)
