wrought iron and 1084, non-folding razor

**spazola** · 10-06-2011, 05:22 PM

Here is a razor I finished this week. The spine and handle are wrought iron the cutting part of the blade is 1084. The high carbon steel is forge welded to the iron. I textured the the handle. The blade is a western symmetrical grind it is about a half hollow. The blade is about 6/8 by 2 1/4.

Charlie, that is pretty slick Brother

You took that to the next level with the mating of the two metals, grinding out a razor from a bar of steel is impressive enough but actually "Forge Welding" it, makes me sit up and take notice....
