The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Hints
Retrieve the pommel of Mehrunes' Razor.
1 of 6: This razor piece can be found at Dead Crone Rock. See the Markarth section of the World Map Exploration Guide if you need directions.
2 of 6: Enter the Dead Crone Rock interior region, then go up the stone stairs and start watching for forsworn to fight.
3 of 6: Go up the stairwell that's on your right, then look for a way to open the nearby closed gate.
4 of 6: Go back the way you came, then go past the opened gate to find a door that leads outside.
5 of 6: Sneak up the stairs to see if you can get the drop on Drascua, a powerful hagraven. Whether you can or not, lure her down the stairs for combat since there are three magic pedestal traps up there.
6 of 6: After you kill Drascua, loot her body to get the pommel. You can then go up the stairs and deal with the pedestal traps (by taking or knocking off their soul gems), then look past them for a Word Wall and some loot.
