How to keep razor flat on hone?
I've tried honing a few of my razors. I've tried laying all 10 or so of them on the hone and none of them lay flat. I really don't think that this is an issue with them being warped since it's always the exact same amount of the toe that's staying lifted up. This even happens on my NOS wapis.
The only way I can get the razor to lay flat is by putting a lot more pressure than I think I should be using, especially when finishing the blade. I've noticed that because of this slightly lifted toe, the bevel near the toe is often thinner than the bevel near the heel when I look at it under a microscope.
My hones are lapped flat too, so I don't think that's the issue.
I hold the blade mostly with my index and thumb on the parts of the tang where many razors have jimps (so the part of the tang that leads to the spine and edge as opposed to the part where there is writing). I gently rest my other fingers on the razor (middle is on tang and scales, rest are on scales).
Any tips? I don't get why this is happening.
