I've been thinking about giving this a go for sometime, I'm really not to sure If I will succeed or fail but I've got to give it a try, firstly I've picked a quality vintage Sheffield file, a real big beast, more than 3/8 thick, 1 1/2 wide, well I've looked at the overall dimensions and taken notes on quite a few razors, just as a loose reference, It's obviously going to be a custom blade around 8/8 wide with a pure wedge grind, longer tail than the standard razor, I will design and heat treat and build and hone the razor, but without machining tools I'm going to have to try and get this machined for me, first stage complete I've marked up and cut out the file ready for hopefully finding a machinist to work the blade for me I will try to update how the project goes.
