    Default Having A Hard Time With A Heel

    Ok I have this razor I'm using for practice. I started by dulling the edge on a glass and was very successful . Then I started on a 1k Naniwa to reset the bevel. Things were going good I was getting it to cut my arm hair everywhere except the heel. I tried rocking, x strokes, putting a finger on the spot that was dull. All with no luck in getting the heel to cut arm hair. I then went to a DMT 325 and then back to the 1k. Still no luck. So as last resort I tried going up to a 5k Naniwa but still no luck. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Did you go into the heel? If you are into that it could mess up for sharpening?
    Heel hook?
