Thank you Scott, I think you summed that up much nicer then I could have.

Thank you as well Randy, for all the advice. For the record, I was trying to describe the two "parts" of the double bevel, not referring to spine wear. The Norton's I believe are 3x8, though I'm at work so I can't measure them just now. (They cover just about the entire razor.)

I will try my best to do what you describe above. You preemptively answered my question about torque, but I have one last one before I hone and report back. When you say "concentrate on one side" does that mean completely ignore the other side? Or maybe do two laps on one for every lap on the other?
