I've had a dovo for a while now that I have discovered is warped. not much I can do as far as I can tell. Cant return it. Still I have tried to sharpen it, but between my incompetence and it not co-operating its been unpleasant at best. And so I bought another to practice. It came shave ready but after some months it is no longer so. And so, basically, the bevel is now royally screwed up, as well, it picks up water smoothly on one side but flipping it over it only collects in the middle.

I cant;
a. figure out how that is possible (that it can touch completely on one side but then not on the reverse)
b. find any brilliant way to remedy this, or better yet figure out how I managed to pull that one off.
c. imagine whom or what to sacrifice to lift this blasted curse.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

cheers,
A.

P.S. I am using a Norton 4000 to try to "set the bevel".
