Don't do anything...You seem relatively new to this whole thing...I'm thinking this was your first str8 shave...? The blade probably was shave ready to begin with, and you may have damaged it trying to hone it...The fact that you think it got better, may have been physcological...I could be wrong...It's hard to tell in the pics, but the blade looks oxidized to me...The bevel needs to be reset, Don't breadknife it, that's not needed...
I highly recommend sending it off to a Honemeister, let him hook it up for you, then they'll be no doubt....
When you get it back, and you think it's not shave ready, Don't do anything to it...
Have someone with experience evaluate it for you, or contact the honemeister...We have assumed control !
