Yes it will, you want to strop about 20 laps on the .50 Cr then go back to yer linen and leather 50/100 that should SMmmooooooth her right up...

I just had to do the same thing on a W&B for myself, the Sheffield steel would not handle the .25 whereas I find most American and Solingen steels I like with that fine of an edge... .25 diamond works on some razors just great, and on others creates a very harsh shave for me....
