    Thank you.
    The owner is well experienced & his ara-togi (coarse grinding) left a perfect geometry that honed easily.
    Yes it was a pretty serious rework due to the damage but I only have the one "before" pic so it's hard to know the original grind. Some of Iwasaki sensei's razors did have a stabilizer tho.

    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.
