    Default Need advice to hone away jagged edge

    I'm in the learning stages of maintaining my own razors.
    I use razors that I bought honed and shave ready.
    After a few weeks of use I have attempted to freshen them up
    with a blue/yellow combination and a pasted .5 grit paddle strop.

    Looking through the RS handheld microscope, the edge on the
    bevel is uniform and straight along most of the length as
    shown on the right, but in some areas the edge is jagged
    as shown on the left of this illustration.
    The razors shave ok with no razor burn, but they don't feel
    as sharp as when I first got them.

    What steps do I need to take do to fix those jagged edges?
    I have a DMT 1200, blue/yellow hones and a 3.0/1.0/.50
    TM paddle strop to work with.
