I would take you advice and pitch it... But! Honing my razors is my last step to complete this crazy circle of SR shaving.. Been at this for 3+ years and way to early i purchased stones thinking i could do it all from the start.. Uhh that didnt take long to realize that was not going to happen and put the Stones away.. About 6 months ago it was time and slowily developed my skills to do all of my razors from bevel to shave ready (15 razors).. All of those are either bought new or in very good vintage comdition so they were pretty easy to get nice edges.. Just a lot of practice and learning my stones... This razor does not get much use and it will work great as a practice razor to leaen on.... When i am done with it and it will fit your wind chimes (it is heavy too) ill semd it to you on the house SMW
