Yeah it is a wedge. Like all wedges there is a slight hollow to it. I'll probably hone with tape . It is 15/16 at the widest, but really it's 7/8 for the most part. Almost a 3.25" cutting edge. From tip to tip (scales and blade) it measures over a whopping 7.5" thanks to the tang lol. Really fits the hand nicely when you hold it to shave since you can use all five fingers to grip it. I asked Robert to make 5 pivot holes so I could choose where to mount it. I ended up using the middle one, but it was a good option for me.

Thanks for the great words everyone! It is very encouraging and keeps me wanting to improve!

Sorry, I'm not taking on any more "projects". That means no scales, restoration, honing, you name it. Look for my custom razors in the future though!
