I'd say that too Jimmy, but for this one time, I'd say, humbly as possible, IT'S MINE!!!!

So, what to do with a razor with that type flaw? I would have a hard time with that, as in I would keep it for my self. Hard to send it off to a customer. Yes flaws are part of the custom world but the ol’ ego takes a hit. Is this the one that gets destroyed to find the true depth of the flaw? Reground hoping to remove the flaw? Good opportunity to practice hollow grinding.

Funny thing here is that to many that “flaw” is unnoticeable and they would love to have the razor, they would cherish it as any other.

Thanks for posting the this one. Often I think people only post their best work and we forget that there are many obstacles to overcome. Many failures and lessons on the way to success.
