Knife making - STRAIGHT RAZOR - from scrap to SHAVING

- This time we have decided to make something we haven't done yet - a straight razor from Barbershop Customs' logo. It was a challenging project, but we're happy with the result.
We do not have a grinding wheel, so we had to get creative with the hollow grind.

Much more appreciated when you actually shave yourself with it afterwards. This is a nice piece. Definitely more straight razor vids needed.
Thank you, I think we will make another one in future ;)
you all probably dont give a damn but does any of you know of a method to get back into an Instagram account??
I somehow forgot the account password. I appreciate any tricks you can give me!
@Lyric Nash instablaster =)
@Walter Marcel Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and im in the hacking process atm.
Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Walter Marcel it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thanks so much you saved my ass :D
Haha I love it everyone is an expert on TH-cam. At first I thought it was a weird music choice but I like its different and you make sick blades keep up the awesome work
Thanks a lot 🤗
If you were to make the wooden scales smaller/less thick, it would’ve made it a lot easier and more comfortable to hold
Should we make more of non-standard knife projects like this one, or do you want to watch more hunting / bushcraft knives instead?
Barbershop Customs I’m always learning so what ever you choose.
@@butterballjitsu19 I'm very glad that these vids help you mate ;)
some more razors would be very awesome, also wharncliffes are my kinda thing
It’s all good
please make something similar to Bob Kramers Chef Knife in 52100 ...
Świetny film.
Miło oglądać jak coś takiego jest tworzone w Polsce i dostępne na cały świat 💪👍
Dzięki, mam nadzieję, że będą coraz lepsze ^^
@@BarbershopCustoms polski knifemaking ma wielki potencjał .
@@MrZdunski102 zgadza się, mamy wielu utalentowanych makerów ;)
Straight razor have a special place in my heart! Nice work
Thanks
Great video! Classical music was the perfect choice for a classic blade!
Thanks
Thank you for this, tried my first ever razor forging after 1 year of not being able to use my forge due to 3 fractures in my arm one after the other (lol).
It turned out not so beautiful and symmetrical as yours but I shall keep trying.
Keep on trying brother! Good luck
Great work, music did my head in. Can it for the next one....
Thanks
@@BarbershopCustoms i love mozart maybe just a little quitier
That looks great. I love it! 👏🏾💃🏾💯👍🏾
Thank you
Those scales look like they are a quarter inch thick each! Must be heavy to shave with. Generally I think straight razor scales don't rest the blade edge on wood as the point of a straight is to be as sharp as possible constantly.
Also are there washers between the scales and blade? Maybe that just didn't get recorded.
beautiful
Great vid I enjoyed the whole process but can I make a slight suggestion when grinding lower the sound of the machines then add your music have a blessed day
I will make sure it's not too loud next time. Thank you very much for the suggestion, feedback is what we need the most ;)
I liked the music. But surprised you didn't choose Barber of Seville. I'm always impressed with straight razors. I'd love to try to make one and shave with one. But I'd probably decapitate myself. Beautiful build.
Thank you, you should definitely try!
Ive seen in a few videos what loojs to be dry ice or liquid nitrogen. What is the purpose of this abd is it done right affter cwenching
wow,hand Made👍
👍
Good job
Que lindo trabajo! El video también estuvo entretenido de ver.
Piękna robota 👍Polska 💪
Dziękuję 😊
Perfect
Thanks
Are you sure those scales are thick enough?
As I look at it now, they should be way thinner :)
Watching you hold the razor almost made my eyes bleed
I enjoy your videos, I would just suggest working on your videography. Some of the shots in this post were very shaky and blurry. However, i understand how difficult it his to have a successful TH-cam channel. Best of luck to you!
Yeah, were aware of that, newer videos keep on getting better, but we'e still learning to film things :D
@@BarbershopCustoms it's all good. Mistakes mean that you're doing something and that you get to learn. Too many people let fear force them into inaction. Keep it up!
@@o0hbomb0o Thats very true, thank you
eyo you sharpen em how I do man!
What metal did you use.
Great job! how do you achieve that grind?? Greetings from Argentina!
Now all I need is a couple thousand dollars worth of manufacturing equipment.
You gotta start somewhere :)
I have started with the cheapest belt grinder (around 100 bucks) and a hand drill :)
@@BarbershopCustoms Still looking to get that bandsaw? Or did the jigsaw just make filming the scale cutting easier?
Good work I enjoyed the video ignore my sarcastic jab above, all in good fun.
A couple of others pointed out that the edge really shouldn't touch the wood which is certainly true. And the geometry of that blade might make honing difficult though I can't say for sure. I've only honed razors with traditional geometry.
Out or curiosity, was that your first time trying a straight razor? If it was I'm assuming your edge wasn't properly finished. There is a significant difference between shaving your arm, and shaving your face comfortably. It takes a bit of patience to set a bevel on a 1k stone. And then take it through a progression of at least a couple of stones to get that buttery (no pulling) shave.
Muy buen trabajo y el proceso interesante pero la música inapropiada.
Did you use washers when you pinned the razor?
Nope, we didn't
I can't stand watching guys do the quick short strokes over the same spot, that's how you irritate the skin and get cut. If you make one nice sweep the tension of the skin keeps the pressure even across the blade and you won't get cut, plus you'll have a cleaner, closer shave and no irritation.
Thanks for the advice, it was the first time I was shaving with a razor :)
I like 👍👍👌
Thanks 😊
It would help if you shaved a part of your face that actually had hair and even the shaving cream on the blade you couldn't see any hair. You did a great job why not show off how good it really is?
I did have hair there :) I didn't want to shave the whole beard tho :) This was more of a one time fun project, there are many things that I would have made differently today, tho we don't make razors (just this one)
Cool video. I only have one question. At what angle did you grind the edge?
It's hard to tell since I've ground it freehand and it's a hollow grind
many thanks for your response...
@@knifeartist9999 with a hollow ground, it's less angle and more of a radius, as the surface is curved in the shape of a comet and its tail almost
Forgive my ignorance, but what's the movable vise that you have the blade chucked up in?
What movable vise? Can you tell what minute you're talking about?
I love all of your videos, very helpful tm me as I learn this craft. 2 questions. Did you build your bevel jig or buy somewhere? I would really like to make our buy one just like it. How many pieces of material did you use for your black spacer and what type of paper/material is it? Thank you for your videos.
I think its vulcan(ized) fibre, just going off looks
Beautiful! What steel is that?
Thanks, it's D2 steel ;)
If you used wax paper you wouldn't have to pry your scales off the work bench after gluing them up.
amazing video!! may I know why the frozen bath?, it's the efist time I see something like that!
It's called Cryo heat treatment and it helps change retained austenite into martensite, which makes the steel harder
nice :)
What type of wood is this?
Looks like work with resin
It's a stabilized poplar burl
@@BarbershopCustoms thank you very much sir
Cool Video,
That’s a lot of work or this video def made it to look that way. The blades didn’t look sharp at all though
Well, it was a one time fun project and there was a couple mistakes that I'm aware of, but the blade was actually very sharp :)
wonderful job, the song could have been. Amusica could have been Seville's barber.
That would make sense
Video was good, but the music is too distracting
Laik Russian. Super.
The geometry is pretty bad on that razor... the bevel is huge and wavy (from what i could see). You spine needs to be thicker or move your double grind higher.

tuan.. ada buat jualan atau tempahan pisau barber?
nope he dont sell straight razor
didn’t double speed up because of music
es chino no
Why do You have such a high sabre grind on a bushcraft knife? Not just here. Other videos of yours too... what happened to the proper Scandi? Not a scandi knife.. not a bush craft knife!! Puuko and proper bushcraft blades are that way for reason
она не бреет! вогнутость не та!
рукоять слишком большая. пропорции не удачные
