Very nice polish work! I love watching sword and knife polishing. It's so relaxing and the results are amazing for the time you pour in! A few months back I bought some waterstones at the market and sharpened my mother-in-law's kitchen knives. Just 10 minutes each mind you. And they suddenly performed exceptionally well. Much respect for those who do this as well as you do.

Very nice. Couldn't help but to think of you with my razor while watching. Thanks! I have not that much experience with razors but my favorites are these two (copy of the thread I wrote on an other forum to sell the razors. Actually I never could sell them): Two very rare Kamisoris made of Tamahagane, samourai sword material.They are both not used but very old stock. From Mitsuo Saku, Touroku Shoushou Tamahagane is used selected pine tree charcoal. Because charcoal gives carbon to Tamahagane at forging process. Compared to white steel, Tamahagane is sharper and longer edge retention and small chipping. At forging process, steel grain become smaller and smaller. Then if you do wrong cutting, The edge has only small chipping. Both polished on very hard and totally flat Ohira Ao Renge. It is possible to get them sharper with a bit more time, more water and finer stones but theses kamisoris are already extremely sharp.
