    Default Custom Attempt #2, 8/8 in G10

    Well here is #2, I think this one went a little better. Still needs improvement, which I would expect.
    Still did a good bit of eye-balling, the spine and tapering...
    Still a long way at go to clean up my grinding ability but overall pleased with the small improvements over #1

    Thanks,
    The grinding need to be cleaner and evened out.

    I did get her honed up and had a test shave. She's a good shaver but what a beast. I tend to prefer 6/8 and it took a couple pass to adjust to the change in size...
