Hi guys,
So I have one razor that has been honed quite a bit, properly, edge is good, hone wear is even, shaves very well
but the stabilizer hasn't been honed and comes further than the rest of the blade, it's very very slightly and creates this tiny frown at the stabilizer, between the end of the heel and the stabilizer
it will get exaggerated and more pronounced over time if I'm not honing into the stabilizer.
Is there a way to solve this?
I actually started honing into the stabilizing part to keep it even with the edge, but one part of the stabilizer is ever so slightly protruding, it's barely noticeable
Honing into the stabilizer has seemed to made it less pronounced, but still I wonder :shrug:
I see a lot of people saying they don't hone into the stabilizer, so eventually wouldn't that create this problem?
Ideas, feedback?
Do I just DMT that part of the stabilizer off?
I was maybe thinking taping up the spine and rounding off the stabilizer / stabilizing edge to get it even? - probably too much waste of metal o
Or just tilting the razor on to the stabilizer part and hone that off without the spine of the razor touching the hone
Anything is surely appreciated!
Edit
Okay, I kind of breadknifed the part of the stabilizer off, being VERY careful not to breadknife into my shaving edge, seems better now
But still I wonder about honing into the stabilizer
