Thanked: 2209In your case, a full hollow, thinly ground razor with noticeable hone wear on the spine, the wider bevel would indicate the possibility of more flex. There is simply less steel behind the edge to keep the blade from flexing.
Try a wedge, get a Wapi from kenrup. It has very good swedish steel and a stiff single concave grind.
