Blade smiths out there...?

[Buckler]

Are there any blade smiths out there?
Im getting prices on making a simple blade to go in straight razor kits.
I think the simplest thing to make would be;
6/8, round point, 1/4 hollow, brushed finish.

Kits will include straight, strop and brush (matching scales and brush handle naturally)

Iv been lightly chasing makers of these blanks for a little while, but i need to get ontop of it now, the semester is finished ands its time to turn my brain power to my hobby (thats in the afternoons that my hands and back aren't too sore from laboring ;) Gotta make a penny ;)

Cheers

Sounds like a Hart razor.

How about importing Gold Dollar razors by the hundred? Not top quality, but would make the kits cheap enough if you had the ability to check each one and give it a decent hone job.

Nope, not willing to do it with GDs. But thanks for the input.

Hart Razors is a new line (single razor) being exclusively carried by Classic Shaving. It is 6/8, 1/4 ground, round tip, and brush finished.

what does the term holow mean new at the sgtraight game o.. sorry if its a dumb ? haha

[mdunn]

its all about how much metal has been removed from the blade. Is it a full wedge or has it been 'hollowed' out

I always have a bit of issue trying to figure out what I have when I'm looking at something in the store.
