Got a razor on eBay that probably wouldn't have cut butter. Maybe that's an exaggeration, but a refresh starting at 4k did nothing. A lot of uneven hone wear, really noticeable on the spine, and the tip was well into a smile. So I breadknifed it straight on a 325 and brought the bevel up from there, eventually switching to a 1k, then 4k, and 8k and 12k for polishing, followed by .5 micron diamond on felt, then a regular stropping. Cuts my arm hair like butter now, so am going to shave with it tomorrow.
Not pretty to look at, since I didn't sand and polish the blade, but it's still cool looking to me. It has...character.
