thanks for the advice on the paper test
well it wouldn't just be for fun. i'd like to get into restoring some of my antique store finds. razors seem to be fairly simple devices so restoring them shouldn't be all that complicated. i've come to this conclusion after perusing the wiki. i guess you could consider my interest as a developing hobby restorer.
how do i know which stone to take the edge down to? my impression was that under 4k would be to bring a completely dead or damaged edge into a bevel and then sharpening takes place. at the moment i stay away from damaged edges and opt for things with damaged scales or minor cleaning duties required. if i could bring back some damaged edges that would greatly increase the amount of razors i could purchase.
