Swedish Steel

Post by buck16 »

Sharpening this razor was quite a challenge. HAAAARD steel! I couldn't get an edge started until I used a Smith's pocket diamond. The only diamond I have. Then I can't tell you how many hundred passes on my hones, then zinc oxide and finally 150 passes on the strop.Have any of you ever sharpened a Swedish steel razor?
