Good day gentlemen!

Here are two medieval type frictionfolders. I wanted to fuse the classic higonokami with my favourite germanic piece of steel, the seax :D
Both have damascus blades, forged of L6 and 1.2516 and have antler handles.
The smaller has a 7 cm long edge with a 17 cm total length when opened and the larger is 24 cm long with a 11 cm long blade.

Love them both.
Hopefully not a silly question - but can you hone them to "straight razor" sharpness, or at least to "uncomfortable but workable shaving" sharpness?
