Very nice work. :woohoo:

Did you use anything to keep the blade even in the vise? Puffy tape, mole skin etc.

I have a delica and an endura yet to do.

I just used some orange rustoleum brand painters tape on the blade where it goes in the vice mostly to keep it from getting scratched up

Nice work man! Well if it is severing a hanging hair then I would say that you have surpassed “hair whittling” lol
