Obviously not a knife, but it is a sharp metal object that I made! These things are by far (in my very limited experienced opinion) the trickiest damn things to grind. But.. I'm a sucker for punishment and have two more in the works as side projects between actual knives. I'm a member of a razor forum where I've gotten some good technical points to help with the new builds, but I figured there has gotta be a couple people here into these that would like to have a peek! Thanks

Lovely work! I'm about to start my first razor build for a customer and would appreciate any tips, especially on the 'handle'.
 
Thanks fellas, appreciate the comments!

Roamad, I was just kind of winging this to be honest. If you're looking for info on razors there is a sub forum here on them, and google the straight razor place forum there's endless info on the makings of a razor there and some helpful people. The handle on this is probably a little thicker than it should be.
