I have honed three razors some one gave to play with.All three when i am reastablishing the bevel in x pattern seem to develop realy nice right towards the toe and middle but the heel seems to take for ever unless i actualy tip the razor towards the heel then i found the bevel starts to develope. I have applied black marker to the razor and it is clear the heel is not contacting my stone because the ink is still on my heel of razor i've flaternd my 1k norton checked it is flat and it is perfect. Should i just keep honing untill the ink disapears i don't like the idea of raising blade and don't no if it is the right thing to be doing.Can any one give advice on this please it seemed to happen on all three razors i also thought is because the x pattern mainly gets more of the middle and end of the blade seems like the heel is straight of the stone down to the x pattern.Not sure realy could do with some good advice on this thanxs gary
