    If you really get stuck, send me the stone in Taiwan and I'll lap it for you with my DGLP. Just pay shipping from Taiwan.
    PM me if you're interested!

    I had exactly the same problem with my new Norton and I bought the Norton Flattening Stone to solve it. I have other natural hones (coticules, etc.) that can be lapped on abrasive paper but the Norton needs something like the NFS or a diamond plate. The NFS is relatively inexpensive but, if you try to use it to flatten anything but another Norton, it dishes out very easily.

    In my case, I'm not restoring razors, just maintaining a few razors that already have a good bevel so I hardly use the Norton 4K/8K. I can't justify purchasing a DMT for myself. It probably would make sense for someone who hones a lot of razors or restores razors.
