This doesn't make any sense to me. I have a couple of cheap 5/8 razors I started out with that I can hone and get them to a perfect edge. A couple of months ago, I bought a Dovo Bismark 6/8 from "Straight Razor Designs". When I first got it, it was shave ready and had a great edge. After 2 months, I decided to hit it a few times on the 8000 stone and it is duller than when I started. I've tried several honing methods and still cannot get it to pass the hanging hair test. Are there any differences between honing a 5/8 vs. a 6/8?
