I wonder how much of a difference it really makes tempering blades with 1960s analog control vs today’s digital control furnace.
Perhaps no difference. Tempering can be done by the color of the steel, and an attentive artisan could mimic the temperature controlled oven. My assumption is that using the modern tools offers improved consistency at the very least.
This isn’t sustainable 😅
No it isn’t, but it’s fun while it lasts. I’ve considered the Palmera 14, but hadn’t thought about the Böker. In fact, I own a Böker knife but not a razor. Clearly that needs a remedy 😉
