Mesophilic:
Almost make me want to shave again  ;D

Trapper Rob:
That's very nice it's on my to do list

Hawkdancer:
Neat!  But I can hardly shave with a modern disposable 5 blade safety cartridge! >:D (lol) (lol),  nice work, might do great for scraping hides!?

Mr. Woolery:
So it looks like a flat grind to me. When you sharpen these, do you use a secondary bevel at all?

I’ve shaved with a straight razor before. Smoothest shave I ever had, but it took 45 minutes!  I’m told that with practice that time can be halved. But still, that’s a lot of time to get smooth.

There’s a lot more to a proper cutthroat than it looks. I’m looking forward to more pics of this one.
