I bought my first SR off of the classified here on SRP, it was from a reputable member that has a honing service. I was supposed to be shave ready. My first shave was uncomfortable to say the least so I just assumed it wasn't honed right. I know now that probably wasn't the case. But at the time I didn't and I decided to hone it again. 4k/8k nortons not sure how many strokes. Still didn't feel comfortable so I decided to hone it again. 4k/8k norton using the pyramid method on wiki. It felt better ( and technique was getting better) but I still thought it could be sharper. So I honed it again 4k/8k nortons per wiki pyramid instructions. It seemed pretty sharp and I was starting to get better shaves but now I'm noticing small chips on the blade after stropping. I noticed the strop had scratch marks on it and inspected closer and saw the chips. I would appreciate any advise or thoughts as to why this is happening. Thanx
