Just wondering if others have this problem. out the razors i have honed i have found 2 that i never got right. one was a stainless steel blade the other is an old sheffield. The sheffield i have taken to the hone 5 times and still haven't got what i consider a comfortable shave. I'm just before removing the blade from the scales and chunking the blade. It's not what i would call a good looking blade as it is but for me now it's about actually getting it to shave right. after that i may use it to cut patches for my smoke pole. I got the thing off the bay mainly for the scales. they were ivory and the razor was very inexpensive. I removed the blade and cleaned the scales then made scales for the blade out of plastic.
I used the naniwa hones 1K-3K-5K-8K- and 12K then finished on the Suehiro 20K. All good stones and have served me well. I use tape on the spine to create the small edge that i like. I don't have a microscope but do have 10X loop. from what i see through it the bevel is set and edge looks ok. It shaves but pulls some. The feel is not at all like any of the other blades i have. Anyway just thought i would ask and see if others have had this experience and what they may have done to fix the problem.
