[QUOTE="randallss7, post: 3964126, member: 24507"] Well I made my 1st straight razor out of ball bearing steel (52100) its a 7/8 straight razor made from .26 inch thick 52100 carbon steel. I got up enough nerve to shave with it, it worked, I do not have anything to compare with so not sure how well it worked. Handle is burlap micarta.

I one way sanded the blades with 320g to give the frosty look but that's it for hand sanding on these.
