    I agree with Ed. I have not been on this road long but I have found a curve may not be the right one but it is still there. Maybe when we get up to as many razors honed as Lynn we can claim that but for now just learning. Next time honing may not go as well or it may go better. Still alot to learn yet.

    What I love about this group is that I have learned so much from so many people, Newbies Midlevel and Senior shavers. Everyone has someting to share.

    Dings are really hard to get out. When I visited a gun show a few months ago I bought a knife sharpening kit that attached to my grinder. It had a paper type wheel with a pretty fine grit on it and the other wheel was a paper type of wheel that you put this compound on for polishing. Sounds funky but it really works. I received a razor off eBay that had a couple of small nicks in the blade, can you imagine. LOL LOL Anyway, I used this wheel that had the grit on it to remove the dings. I ground the edge so that it was even all the way across. I also used very light pressure. I then buffed up the edge as much as I could and then honed it so that it would shave. This, I believe, was quicker than honing out the edge. Has anyone else tried it this way?
    if anything has been abnormal for a long enough period it then becomes normal.
