Hard to say without having seen the razor before, during and after. OTOH, yes I have done more or less the same thing. In my honing journey I have had the experience of getting a razor to a level of satisfactory level of sharpness and then adding a few more strokes thinking more is better and going past it. IOW, losing the sharpness and having to get it back. Not sure if that was the issue. There are so many variables.

One thing I make sure to do if I get a razor that was pre honed ( and I know who honed it) is to ask if they used tape or not. One way or the other I will use tape but I like to know anyhow.
