    Default Dinged my straight on the faucet

    So I got my first straight in the mail yesterday and decided to shave with it today. Lo and behold i dinged it on the faucet .
    When I ran my thumpnail from the spine to the edge, I could feel it "sticking" on the edge. So I decided to try and do some backhoning on the 8k norton because I thought the edge was rolled and I could roll it back, if such a thing is possible.
    When I do the same thing again after the backhoning I can't feel the edge "sticking" but it looks like there is a minor chip in the edge.
    I did a search and found this tread: http://straightrazorpalace.com/begin...zors-edge.html where the same thing happened. The only difference is: he could feel the rolled edge; I can't after the backhoning.

    so my question is: Do you think it's necessary to have it rehoned or is it still usable as is.
