Are they new or vintage razors? If they are older, it's possible that the spine has already been worn down over the years. That's what we mean by hone wear. And as Mr. Magnus mentioned, either excessive or uneven honewear can cause your bevel to be thick or uneven.
Also bear in mind that while it might look different from what you expect, they may still shave great. One of my best shavers is a J. Wostenholm EBRO that has a really, really wonky bevel. It is a bit of a bear to hone thanks to uneven hone wear on the spine, but it shaves *great*. Now, that's the exception and aiming for a nice even, thin bevel is a good idea. Just remember that the only test that matters is how it actually shaves.
And as for being a dumb a*s, surely the fact you're here disproves that theory, no? :tu
