    Angry TI Sharpening Problem

    Hello Gentlemen, I have a TI sheffield steel blade that simply does not want to get sharp. It would probably be my favorite...If I could ever shave with it! I have several razors (Dovo Prima Klang, Le Grelot, Henkels...) and several hones (Norton4/8, Coticule,Thuringian) diamond pastes and a Tony Miller strop. It seems like I have worked it and worked it and its barely sharp. My other razors are sharp! What the hell gives? I have looked under magnification and nothing seems wrong. Do I just keep working it? I am ready to throw my hands up in the air....HELP! I know its sort of a tough call, but is there any common wisdom in this type of situation? Thanks! (Can some blades take several hours of work?)
