    Default Examples of uneven beveled, shave-ready blades

    I'm in the middle of honing two different blades (full and extra hollow grinds). Each is slightly warped and thus one side has a nice thin bevel, the other side starting to look like a smiling blade.
    Additionally, the full hollow has really wavy spine wear. I think the previous owner got happy with the buffer.
    So to get to the point of the thread I think it would help the community in general if people could post examples of the wonkier looking bevels and spine wear they've seen that STILL produced an excellent shaving edge.
    Obviously hollows will look a little more tidy than wedges, but all grinds should be represented!
    When posting, show at least each side of the blade face. Let me know if this type of thread has been created already and I'm just late to the game!
