Thread: Scratches on the bevel after natual finishier, too much pressure?

You were absolutely right abut that. I was just not 100% happy with that the mirror finish scratched by the natural stones. It's a rabbit hole I'm not sure whether it worthy to get to the bottom...

Dovo is notorious for creating frowns from their insistence on using a ridicules technique/hone (Whole other topic)

I did a vid on how to fix them since it is a common issue

Thanks for the video. Checked and it wasn't the situation I have if I understood it correctly. My one is that if you look towards the edge, the edge warped to one side instead of looking like a straight line. If you put the edge vertically towards a flat surface, almost all of the edge can touch the flat surface. Tried to bend the spine a little bit to make the edge straight on bare hand, indeed managed to get it better but still not perfect and thus need a little extract press either in the center of edge or two tips of the edge depends on which side it touches the stone. Such defect perfectly matching what I saw from the video regarding how Dovo sharpening their razors. If I saw that earlier, I would have walked away.
