I am contemplating making a straight razor. So I have several questions before I proceed.
First a little background. I have access to a CNC Machine. The blade I plan on making will be a near wedge. I will be using O-1 for the blade. I have designed the blade and was wondering, as i will be machining the entire profile and blade faces. Would .010 per face be enough to leave pre heat treat?
If not suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
When it comes time to heat treat I will have to take it someplace to get done. How does 59-61 Rockwell C sound.
Thank you in advance.
