No big issue just something to keep in mind for the future

also you just missed the big meetup in Denver last month but Blueman7 is organizing a small get together for CO members that you might really try and make..

Nothing beats face to face help

Hope to meet ya next year at the 7th annual Mile High Meet


Looking at the pics it looks like the heel of the razor is a little wonky you need to smooth up and re-contour that "Hook" before you go much farther..

I show how to do it rather easily and a few of my honing vids on a DMT

Other side

Thanks for the info!

That sucks about missing the meetup I'll definitely be there next year... Also how do I find out about another small meetup? I would go for sure...

So the first set of pics was me honing at the 1k when I noticed the bevel being the only at it was. Yeah it's funny I was watching your video when you were helping pointing out mistakes on someone who had never honed before... Which by the way was a genius and was a lot of help... There is a video you have that explains how to fix what's going on with my razor? Do u have a link?

It looks pretty good really. I see how one side is wider than the other, but the bevel is very even. It looks to me like you would have no problem setting a good bevel and honing that razor as it is. The bevel being wider on one side shows that the edge is not centered on the grind. If the bevel is set now, I would not worry about it. If you have to reset the bevel anytime, you can put more work on the side with the narrow bevel to help center the edge on the grind. This does not have to be done all at once. I would just work towards that anytime you need to re set the bevel.
