Here is a razor I finished this weekend. It is my take a non-folding Japanese style with an asymmetrical grind. The razor is made from O1 the wrap is hemp and epoxy. The blade area is about 2.25 X .75.

That looks great. I'll have to keep an eye on your work.
 
I like it quite a lot! The chisel grind and straight razor look is really cool, I like the wrap too.
 
Awesome Charlie! Out of curiosity, what size radiuses did you use for the grinds? Almost looks like a 3" and 14" to get those curves!
 
Thank you guys for the kind words about my work.

The small side was ground with a 4" wheel, the big side was ground with an 8" wheel. I moved the razor around a bit while grinding the big side it has a bigger radius than the 8" wheel. I ground several troughs/grooves then blended them together.
