Thanked: 346Looks like a normal frameback to me, what's the difficulty with honing it? None of mine have changeable blades, but changeable-blade framebacks aren't particularly rare (a french one went on ebay a few weeks ago for $30 or so), and I'm not sure why they would be less honeable than fixed-blade framebacks.
Tape the spine if you're worried about spine wear, but since replacement blades aren't likely to spring from the factory any time soon I'm not sure I'd worry about it.
