Hi,

I recently purchased a brand new stainless steel Dovo straight razor and three different DMT diamond plates of varying grades of fine to extra extra fine.

I did a one lap test run on each plate just to get the gist of honing a blade but noticed something odd.

Placing water on each of plates allows me to see that on one side of the blade, the water is being pushed by the center of the blade and on the other side the water is being pushed by the ends of the blade.

On one side there is a clearly seen bevel but on the other side the bevel is very thin and only clearly seen on the heel and toe.

Is it possible to keep honing the blade so the bevel is equal on both sides?
