Thread: Bevel angels?

Apologies as I can't seem to recall or find accurate info about it atm,

Which bevel angels are good for shaving? I thought anything from 9 - 22 degrees. (I don't think too low angles were very good at edge holding IIRC)


A friend of mine gave me a razor to sharpen and he used couple of layers of tape on his wedge, but after measuring with tape his angle is 24° in some parts of the razor

that seemed a little steep and he created a secondary bevel at this angle, so I gotta know if I have to hone it out or not

Thanks in advance fellas!
