A good whack on the unsharpened end easily punched the sharpened side through a stack of 6 psa discs - I also used it to cut out about 20 - 1" discs of leather.
Now I need to get busy finding some more nasty scratched up, tarnished razors so I can put all of this new stuff into use!

By the way, I got about 19 - 1" discs out of each 6" disc that I punched holes through. The 6" psa discs cost roughly $0.60 each, so that puts the cost of each 1" disc at just over $0.03 each - this is considerably cheaper than the pre sized versions.
I was also thinking about punching some wet/dry sand paper and using 3m spray disc adhesive to attach these discs - or even better, some of the psa film from handamerican - this would allow for a greater variation in grit choices.Last edited by xakpeet; 12-13-2005 at 02:24 AM.

Well I finished this blade. I took the scales of and repinned it (my first try). I rebeveled it with my 220 Japanese waterstone which is slower cutting than you might think. I got a nice smooth edge under 200x and am ready to start shave honing it. Thanks for all the input guys.
