Thread: Slice 'N Go

The Prima Klang is an extra holllow singing blade, requiring an ultra-light touch and a shallow angle. Try backing off on the pressure and adjusting your angle a bit. Other than that, I would agree with the others that there may have been some lateral movement involved, too.

Yep, You hit the nail straight on the head on that one. That's what I have been doing. I looked closely as I shaved and did notice lateral movement (though very very minor). I've got a long way to go still, plus I believe I have a rolled edge now, so the blade needs re-honing.

I've blunted mine now too *sigh* I'll have to try and rehone it. careless stropping i guess ?
