    Default Something silly...

    I clonked the tip of my razor on the sink, nothing hard and a visual inspection shows no damage but running the thumb along the blade proves there is a 'deviation' there and if you run cotton wool along it it will pull out a piece.

    I am thinking it's now out of action as I don't fancy the same problem that grasps the cotton wool getting hold of my skin...

    What course of action do I take?

    Send to a honemeister to hone the defect off?
    Grasp the nettle and attempt it myself on the Norton?
    Buy another and wait until my honing ability can cope?

    I did run the edge over the linen side of the strop to see if I could straighten the edge but used no pressure and the noise put me off immediately! It's amazing that something that's virtually invisible can be so obvious with a tactile inspection...

    As ever gents all help gratefully accepted!!!
