I use a piece of 1/8 lead sheet folded over with tape on the handle portion. It's an ages-old method to smooth the edge.
A razor blade will not retain any of it. Just wipe it off good. I recently got a vintage strop tool.
Looks like aluminum will work too?

So any lead ingot would work? Do you just rub it on?

Where do you guys get your CroOx and FerOx from to make sure i get the good stuff, in Canada preferably because it is cheaper and easier for us to order.

I reckon I'm going to go to my local tyre place and just ask for an old balancing weight, that seems to be all that Outback uses unless I misunderstood.

Yep...stick in wheel weights. I just remove the glue with acetone.
I hear lead is better when pasted to a leather strop, but I don't have one I want to do that with, so I used an extra linen strop instead. Seems to work just fine.!
Lay it out flat on a counter top, and start rubbing with the lead. It doesn't need to be heavy. It'll look like you colored it with a pencil, though.Mike
