Just so ya know what heat treated steel looks like fresh out of the oven and liquid nitrogen bath... here is what we look like so far.
Ain't that purdy? Anybody think I should just put it on the scales this way? I suppose I could sharpen it a tad with an 80 grit stone.

Heck, just send all the pieces individually wrapped with a note: "Some assembly required."
Great filework Bill, really takes advantage of all that real estate.

Bill, that is really going to look nice you do super work. I like the idea of sending it in pieces with some assembly required with a touch of honing.
if anything has been abnormal for a long enough period it then becomes normal.

I would like a razor with that finish in some scales, but with atleast 8000 grit finish Originally Posted by urleebird

I thought of putting one of my carbon DOVO's in a white vinegar bath to make it like that. It is a popular way of blackening professional chief's carbon knifes. I might do that some day.

That looks neat. Kind of reminds me of the titanium oxide finishes on some knives and zippos; the rainbow of bronzish-metalic coulours.

I like it too. It's like raku pottery. And for some reason has a "cowboy" feel to it. I have no idea why I think that.

I think that the collective Honemeisters should announce a new pricing schedule. Something like; "All razors honed to shave ready condition - $20.00 (Unless the razor is over 11/8, in which case the charge is $200.)"
